Can from Tesco, Enniskillen [301017]
Amber, clear, dense white nitro head
Aroma - soft lemon, light nose, OK
Taste - soft citrus hops, light twiggy hops in there, dab of caramel, soft flavours, slightly metallic edge, easy
Palate - Very soft carb, medium loght body, smooth, light sweet pale malts. Finish - light creamy, soft bitter hops, light twigs, dab of citrus, more English hops in linger
Overall - Light IPA, more of a old fashioned English IPA with a dab of citrus hops added - nitro head is a bit odd. OK - easy drinking, not too bad.

Cask at the Norfolk, Colchester. Pours dark golden with a lasting white head. Aroma of hop, grass, flowers, fruit and caramel. Medium plus sweetness, light bitterness. Medium body, slight oily texture, soft carbonation. Not unpleasant, but quite ordinary.

Clear golden, white head. A bit of citrus hop but basically this is about as bland and middle of the road as IPAs get. It's not bad as such, just desperately inoffensive.

Tap at Reading Rugby Club, 25th May 17. Pours clear, frothy artificial head. Aroma is some citrus. Taste is slightly IPAish, mouthfeel is weird and creamy. Not great but Ok in the sun.
