Keg at The Earl of Essex, Islington, London. A hazy golden/yellow coloured pour with a medium white head on top. Hoppy, tropical fruit, grapefruit aroma. Tastes similar, hoppy, citrus, tropical fruit, grapefruit, some pine. Decent enough but expected a little more from Wylam to be honest.

Can at home from Utobeer, 25th October 18. Pours cloudy and light straw in colour, minimal head. Aroma is sweet, citrus, slight onion, lovely. Taste is impressive, tangy, dry, some lovely citrus and tropical fruit notes, aromatic, well balanced and full bodied. Finish is light to medium bitter, nice linger. A cracker.
