Cask at CBC, London on 16th August 2013. Pale gold with thin white foam and initial lacing. Fruity, yeasty aroma. Bitter hops in-mouth - grassiness and leafy bitterness abound along with fine floral and fruity notes. Bitter finish with background fruits on a smooth mouthfeel and light body.

Cask at Clerkenwell. Orange-gold with lace. Nose is orange, diacetyl, butterscotch, spicy pepper. Flavors of creamy fruit, toffee, peach, mango, pepper. Too much diacetyl ruins it. Estery, creamy, with a very bitter finish.

Aroma: Muted aroma or orange, lime and biscuit. Quite sweet.

Appearance: Hazy pale golden body with a medium white head that holds really well. Average carbonation. Nice lacing.

Taste: Leafy, green hops. Well balance of soft citrus and pale malt, although the flavours aren’t very well defined. Easy drinking and low bitterness.

Palate: Thin to medium body with an oily mouthfeel. Light carbonation fizz.

Overall: A decent low ABV Golden Ale but not very unique.
