A golden session bitter. Traditional English malts and hops combine to make this a well balanced and satisfying beer.

Third from cask at the Brewery Tap. Shared with Finn. Close to clear amber body, filmy layer, scattered lacing. Modest aromas of ripe fruits and grain. Grass, leafy hops, and grain to the taste buds. Subdued mid-dry bitter end. Easy going. (Chester 26.01.2020).

Delt med Rune. Gylden. Skumring. Ferskenaroma. Smaken mere fersken. Litt syrlig med en tørr bitter avslutning.

Cask at Brewery Tap, Chester Pours a golden yellow with a lively white head vand good lacing. Slow to settle, but does so eventually. A pleasant simple hoppy aroma, and a mouth which has hops and oranges mixed. Finish is bitter oranges – probably the most memorable thing about the beer. Does exactly what it says on the tin !

Handpull cask at the Queen Edith, Cambridge. Amber, clear with a small loose white head. Very light woody aroma. Taste is pretty malty but there’s a sulphur note in the back of the mouth. A bit more hop bitterness in the finish. Cherry and bicarbonate of soda in the aftertaste. Not actively awful by any means, but it doesn’t really hang together.

Cask-conditioned at the Seven Stars, Bristol 6/3/2017. Deep gold in colour, with a slight, off-white, head. Aroma of stone fruit, weetabix and leafy hops hops. Flavour had a touch more sweetish fruit and heavy cereal malts, leading to a moderately bitter finish. Ok.
