Forged from the finest Maris Otter malt and a special blend of American hops. The nose is of fresh citrus and berry fruits with a smooth juicy malt character and deceptively moreish finish that belies its strength.

Cask. Slightly hazy golden colour, not much head. Aroma is riped fruit, fruity hops and some grass and wood. Flavour is big sourish fruity hops and some hints of grass. Long grassy and fruity hops in aftertaste.

500ml bottle from Sainsburys, Pride Park, Derby. A golden colour with a compact white head; aroma of citrus, honey, lanolin, and hospital disinfectant; thick and oliy in the mouth, with a honey sweetness that releases a deeply bitter aftertaste with a grapefruit tang. One of the few beers where I wish Iโd brought more - hopefully theyโll have some left tomorrow!

Pale golden. Small white head. Light citric aroma. Hoppy sharpness in flavour with a good touch of juicy fruit (lemon and orange). Moderate bitter finish (Halt pint on gravity served a bit too cold at The Fat Cat, Norwich 25.09.2006).

(On tap) Pale golden and hazy, no head. Incredibly light body, only a week hint of malt. Citrusy, sourish nose with pronounced sour flavours - almost vinegary. I thought this cask might be infected, but I can see from the other ratings that this is presumably, how itโs supposed to be. Just not for me. 050805
