Pure white rocky head stayed on an active golden body. Sweet citrus aroma. Medium bodied, well carbonated but smooth on the tongue & tingly on the back. Very dry. Malty to the fore followed by a bitter, hoppy aft with citrus & pith. Pretty Non-descript

Handpull cask at the Alexandra Arms, Kettering. Dark gold, slightly hazy with a big loose off-white head. Light peach notes with a hint of piney resin. Tastes really good. Sweet and fruity with the initial notes fading to reveal a powerful bitterness underneath. Bitter finish bordering on the astringent. Bodyโ€™s a bit thin, but that isnโ€™t such a major concern. This is a very good cask pale ale.

Draft at Craft 100 Spring 2016 - Craft Beer Co. Clapham, London. Pours clear gold with a mild, creamy white head. The nose has some floral hops, zesty lemon. Light sweet flavour, with nice pale bread, more citrus zest. Light bodied with fine carbonation. Pleasantly balanced in the finish, with more citrus fruits. Good beer.
