On tap at Craft Room, Opatovina, Zagreb. Shared with lovely Anja. Murky golden, small off-white head. Lightly to moderately hoppy, fruity, citrus, orange, maybe peach, tropical notes. Also malty. Not getting the English hops if they were in fact used. Light bitterness. Aromatic. Medium body, moderate carbonation, light finish. Average.

Can I reckon. Hazy golden body, white head. Huh, sadly, this was a bit oxidized, caramelly maltiness was the only thing in the aroma. Sweetish malty taste, with some very light orangey hops. Okay. To be rerated fresh at some point.

Cask at the Wellington Arms, Bedford. Dark gold with a small to medium white head. The bouquet is light, and centres on malt, white grape and tropical fruit. Sweet juicy taste, with a bitter turn waiting in the background. More grape and papaya in the finish. Full palate, very nice carbonation. Lovely.
