500ml bottle from Hop Vault, Stourbridge. Clear straw colour with small white head, nice lacing and retention. Aroma has sweet malts, citrus notably lime, grass, hints of pine. A bit lager like. Taste is like aroma, quite a strong citrus to this, more pine notable in the finish. Decent pale ale.

Cask at Greyhound, Stafford. Pours a pale straw with a small foamy almost white head and good lacing. There’s grains and continental hops in the aroma plus some hints of biscuits. In the mouth it is sweet and tangy with a slightly sharp edge to it. Continental hops are prevalent again alongside summer fruits. Later on traces of lime and pine come through as well. Finish is dry and slightly bitter. This is rather nice. Interesting and certainly better than expected.

[50cl bottle from a deli in Ludlow.] A straw coloured pour with no head and moderate carbonation, looking more like a cider than a beer; dusty citrus aroma; taste of orchard fruit with a little citrus sweetness ; then some peppery bitterness. An odd beer.

A beautifully clear straw colour, with a bubbly white head, and a touch of sweet malt, hay and citrus on the nose. The mouthfeel is crisp and fresh, there’s an initial almost spicy hop bitterness with a sweetish bread flavour coming through, some floral notes with citrus and honey there too, before a dry and slightly bitter finish

Third by cask, on the second day of GBBF Winter 2020, Elgar Bar. Shared with Finn. Bubbles on the surface of a bright golden body, scattered lacing. Promising floral nose. Mid-sweet taste of citrus and juicy malts. Bittersweet tail. Quite nice. (Birmingham 05.02.2020).
