Taster at the Lincoln Fill Station. Pours a pale, opaque, yellow color, with a small, white head. The nose is grapefruit, quinine, peach, hay, and spruce. Sweet and citrusy, with a sharp, mild bitterness. Medium body, zesty, and effervescent. Solid and tasty.

Pours a very hazy, bright orange-yellow, with smallish, but lasting head. Aroma has some floral elements, grass, citrus, tropical fruit. Flavor is quite dry, with citrus and tropical fruit, some onion, grass, a touch of pine/spruce hop bitterness in the finish. Very nice.

On tap at Trillium in the Garden, pours an opaque cloudy golden with a small white head. Aroma brings out fresh piney hops and dry biscuity malt. Flavour is super fresh, with fresh doughy malt and creamy piney hops. Clean and creamy. Very good.

Hackney Bottleshare. Thanks to Leighton for the can. Very hazy yellow gold beer, good pale cream colour head. Palate is thin, fairly dry and fairly crisp. Thin malts, sweetish. Good spicy nettley hops with spicy mandarin and tangerine. Citric peel on the semi dry finish. Nice APA.

Can thanks to LKS. It pours cloudy yellow with a small white head. The aroma is fresh, yet soft, juicy, bready, doughy, bit green, clean, green melon and greengage. The taste is soft, limited bitterness, bready, doughy, green hops, melon, zesty, wood, pithy tangerine and a bit of soap with a drying finish. Medium body and fine, massaging carbonation. Well rounded and quaffable.

Can shared in Hackney - sourced from Duke, via the brewery. Pours unclear gold with a frothy, white head. Pissy hops in the nose, peach, lemon rind, pineapple, passion fruit. Light sweet flavour with further lemony accents, biscuits, mild bitter pale grains, hay, more passion fruit, pithy grapefruit. Ligh bodied with fine to averge carbonation. Decent balance in the finish, more lemon peel, dry pale bread and biscuits, hay, mild bitterness. Not bad overall.
