15/10/2017. Cask at the Golden Fleece, Chelmsford. Pours very slightly hazy pale gold with a small lasting white head leaving good lacing. Nice, easy drinking pale ale. Also 17/5/2025. Cask at The Fat Cat, Ipswich. Nice and easy drinker.

Cask at The Nelson pre Ipswich v Sheffield Wednesday. Aroma of grass, lemon, citrus and hints of apple. Very smooth and drinkable. Decent citrus and hops on the taste. Enjoyed this.

Bottle at home. A lively pour and a very pale colour in the glass. A really crisp and clean taste that is akin to a lager. Very pleasant.

Bottle from Russell & Newnes, Aldeburgh. Clear golden with a light carbonation and a bubbly-frothy head. A pleasant in the palate bottle conditioned pale ale with citrus notes in both aroma and taste. Hints of breadiness.

A light haze on this orange gold beer, small pale cream colour head. Smooth palate, semi dry, decent fine carbonation emerging late on. Light malts, smooth and with a very modest sweetness. Old stalwart Citra, provides rich orange which is dominanted by the peel side of things. Some tangerine and mandarin bring up the rear with a whisper of pink grapefruit. Light finish leaves a modest peel bitter linger. A tasty and drinkable good that does a pretty good job showcasing Citra.

Cask at the Elephant, Faversham on 30th April 2022. Clear gold with shallow off-white foam and full lacing. Zesty peel aroma. Grassy and citrus hops in-mouth and a finish of blended fruits and grassy hoppiness which begins to take over as the finish evolves. Very well kept.

Cask at the lower red lion St Albans. A clear mid golden coloured pour with a a loose white head. Aroma is decent leafy citrus hop, straw, hedgerow,. Flavour is composed of rustic pale grains, hay, firm grassy hop bitterness, zippy cittus. Back of the throat bitterness. Palate is semi sweet, resinous, leafy, decent cask condition.
