Nitro keg at Morris’ Bar, Oldmeldrum. It pours clear amber with a thick, foamy white head. The aroma is soft, sweet, cream soda, candied orange, biscuit and toasty grain. The taste is smooth, mellow bitterness, some orangey hops, tangerine, white bread and rich tea biscuit with a soft, dryish finish. Medium body and moderate, foamy carbonation. Nitro dispense actually sort of works here. Overall it’s actually fair - has nice orange vibe. OK.

Cask @ The White Horse, Shrewsbury. Pours a misty gold, thick white head. Aroma of breezy citrus, malt. Taste is what I would call a golden ale, with some pleasant citrus cutting through. Did its job of being an unfussy beer to accompany a catch-up with Mum on Mothers Day

Minimal beige head soon left a skim on a light golden, highly carbonated and Floral, hoppy aroma. Thin on the palate, prickly on the fore & cloying on the back. Pretty much a nothing of a beer, caramel, very dull tasting on the tongue, slight sweetness & absolutely nothing on the aft.

Bottle at home. A good general purpose IPA. Nothing spectacular, but very pleasant to drink. The hops are there, but they are quite soft. Not the "in your face" hops that you would expect with the style. There is also quite an odd sweetness coming through and I am still not sure if it is something that works.

Cask (or keg?) at the Wyvern, Church Crookham. No aroma. Light amber. Thick creamy industrial head. Sweet before a light herbal hoppy bitterness develops. Light. Soft. Long finish. A barely adequate APA but still drinkable.

On tap at Malt & Hops Minsk, Belarus. This beer there...why...4.5€ for a pint of this shit. Clear golden coloured, small white head, mild grainy nose. Watery, light bready, stale herbal hoppy and touch of metal in the finish. Waste of money for sure.
