Half pint on keg at Hopbunker. Shared with Finn. Spotty lacing from a firm white head, hazy golden body. Aroma of saison fruits, lightly spiced. Blended taste of citrus and mid-tart saison fruits. Ends tart and sweet. Rather thin on the swallow. Fair enough. (Cardiff 03.10.2018).

On keg at Monty's Bar. Appearance - cloudy golden orange. Thin head. Nose - blood orange, pink grapefruit, saison spice. Taste - candied lemon, white pepper, grapefruit zest and pith. A touch of gooseberry or rhubarb. Palate - close to medium bodied with a tangy texture. Long dry, lean tangy finish. Overall - lovely beer with tremendous complexity and balance.

On tap at the Bag O'Nails, Bristol 23/3/2018. Pale gold in colour, with a medium-sized, white, head. Grapefruit and pineapples, grainy malts, some citrus hops, leading to a tart finish. Refreshing.

Keg @ Nightjar, Hebden Bridge. Hazy amber-blonde in colour. It's a soured hoppy-fruity brew, with its sourness just about dominant.

Bottle. Pours a misty yellow, white head. Aroma of soft wild yeast, funk, citrus, lemon zest. Taste follows along similar lines, light bodied with soft lemon, sherbet, wild funk, citric zest.. all rather light sessionable. Not bad, but unfortunately loses a few marks due to the brewery artificially inflating their RB scores via numerous profiles. See Theydon_Bois comment below.

Keg at Ghost Whale, Brixton, 04/08/17. Golden pour with a well presented off white cap. Nose is lemon rind, straw, moderate spice, grains. Tatste comprises light yeast esters, nip of lime jus, crackers, citric tinged straw, lemon drizzle, hint of farmyard and a trace of white peppery spice. Medium bodied, fine carbonation, semi drying close. Decent refreshing saison for the ABV. NOTE .... I haven’t worked for Celt Experience and am not a friend of the guy who has been involved with Celt Experience / Mabignon Mead and Lines Brew hence my score didn’t quite hit the 4.5 level these folks tend to rate at !!!
