Bottle shared at a tasting at Dancing Camel. Clear golden. Aroma of stale-ish chalky malt, and some citric and floral hops. Rather dry flavor, with some chalky malt, and some bitterish floral and citric hops. Rather light-bodied. OK.

At a tasting, thanks, smallish head, clear deepish yellow color, light woody slightly fruity aroma with a herbal hint, fruity malty flavor with some caramel and a herbal bitterness. Fair.

Bottle from Tesco, Ashford and drunk at home. Clear amber pale brown colour lasting white head. Pine resin aroma, hoppy aroma. Far hoppier on aroma than I was expecting. Some caramel in the mouth, some more fresh hops. Quite leafy on the finish. Possibly the hoppiest beer I’ve had brewed at Banks’s? Malts are a bit weird (bit of a watery mouthfeel) but the hops certainly decent. I quite liked it. Certainly tempted to buy it again. Except the watery mouthfeel. Hops are excellent.

50cl bottle from Tesco, Camberley. Golden amber with a white head; lemony, grassy aroma; sweet caramel body, with a grassy bitterness; and a jammy orange citrus finish. Not bad.
