Cask at Craft Beer Co, Clerkenwell on 30th January 2013. Slightly hazy amber with ring of foam and diminishing lacing. Hoppy and spicy aroma. Richly hoppy in-mouth with citrus, smoke and fruitiness. Increasingly bitter finish, and a smooth to light mouthfeel. Exquisite.

Cask at CPK, London. Pours deep gold with a fine, white foam head. Lightly toasted pale malt nose, some hay and dry lemon - in other words, a pretty damn standard aroma for a golden ale. Light sweet flavor, some crispy, biscuity pale malts, more hay, light lemony citrus bitterness. Light bodied with fine carbonation. Good condition. Lightly dry to finish, further notes of lemon, some toasty straw, dry biscuits. Classical stuff. Good beer, the brewery name notwithstanding.

Bottle at the Den Haag RB tasting. Light amber pour with a thin white head. A wonderful floral aroma of stinging nettles! The flavour is bitter and floral but smooth and thoroughly refreshing and tasty. Must drink more of this!
