Bottle from Cotteridge Wines, Birmingham. Poured a hazy light amber with a frothy white head. The aroma is grassy hop and fruity. The flavour is medium to weak bitter win an ever so slightly sour, grapefruit citrus watery palate. Lacks a little flavour compared to other Arbor beers I’ve had.

Bottle at Frank (camper) consumed at Bromyard Folk Festival Bar, Herefordshire Friday 13th September 2013 forgot where I got this beer, possibly ’Jacks’ Westholme Stores, Goring-on-Thames, Oxon Gold in colour with white head. I found this a rather watery, thin beer that offered very little. Ok there are hops here and it is a little bitter but it all appears rather too subtle and safe. Maybe I was thirsty and rushed it, maybe it was just not that great, whatever, I didn’t really go a bundle on it and moved swiftly onto the next offering. A6 A4 T6 P3 Ov12 3.1

500ml bottle. Pours light gold with a small head. Aroma is bitter grapefruit and mango puree. Taste is sweet pineapple to start with a bready mango finish. Taste is a bit of a let down after the aroma.

Cask-conditioned at the Red Lion, Whitehall, Bristol 1/6/2013. Deep gold with a slight white head. Aroma of citrus fruit, gooseberries and biscuity malts. Flavour had more fruit, crisp malts and resulted in a dryish finish. Good.
