Bottle at home in Hackney - picked up from Waitrose. Pours crystal clear gold with a foamy, white head. Nice citrusy hops, a little dried peel, crispy pale malts, accents of pine needles, biscuits. Light bodied with massaging carbonation. Clean and balanced finish, just a hint of resin, more citrus peel, crunchy pale biscuits. Massively drinkable stuff.

Older tasting note: dark yellow/orange pour; aromas of malt, toast, fruits. Taste adds some more hops for a decent finish.

50cl bottle from Abeervinum, Rimini, Italy. Pours light amber, fairly transparent, with fine white foam. Aroma is intensely hoppy, earthy, a little malty. Body is average, with good carbonation. Taste is quite bitter, even in the long and intense final.

Bottle from local Co-op. 2nd of the two ticks they stocked. Aroma light - earthy with some citrus. Clear gold. Thin bubbly translucent white head. Medium bitter. Grainy snd spicy. Light resin. Develops a fruity citrus streak. Pleasent if restrained. Never quite gets jammy which I would have liked. Light-medium bodied. Slick. Soft-fizzy carbonation. Long dry slightly astringent finish. Enjoyable enough.

Fles gedeeld door Koenzie. Het is een helder goudgeel bier met een volle witte schuimkraag. Het heeft een hoppige en harsige licht fruitige geur. De smaak is vol harsig en hoppig met een bittere afdronk.

Cask @ The Boathouse, Shrewsbury. Hazy gold pour, good white head. Tastes like a completely different beer on cask, which may or may not be due to condition. Comes across quite watery with a mild sticky hop bitterness on the finish. I've had this tasting incredible in bottle before. Seems a bit sad to have it in a such poor state.
