Keg at Eebria taproom - Bermondsey. Pours hazy yellow with a frothy white head. Decent stuff, some strong chalky bitterness, lemon peel, pale grain husk. Light bodied with average carbonation. Dry finish, a little carpet, more grass and pale grain husk. Not bad overall,

30/1/2019. Tap at Four Hops, Reigate. Pours hazy pale golden orange with a just off-white head. Aroma of citrus, hops, green mango, malt and fruit biscuit. Light sweetness, medium plus bitterness. Moderate body, oily texture, average carbonation. Nicely done.

Tomas Tallis. KeyKeg. Light haze on the yellow gold beer, small white head. Light and semi dry palate, fairly crisp. Good yellow grapefruit hops and hop skunk over a thin malt base. Some spicy bittermess. Dry and bitterish finish. A robust and kick ass SIPA.

On tap at Fuggles Beer Cafe Tonbridge. Pours cloudy orange gold colour lasting cream head. Creamy. Some satsuma. Something earthy. More orange inflected fruit on the finish. Fine. Good fruit mind. Creamy mouthfeel. Ok

Keg at Cronx. It pours cloudy golden with a small white head. The aroma is fresh, green hops, grass, chive, spring onion, bready and riot stone fruits. The taste is crisp, dry, bitter, grassy, green, weedy, floral, pine needles, touch of spice, citrus peel and resin with a lingering bitter - dry finish. Light - medium body and moderate carbonation. Packs a lot of flavour in, esp for the abv. Rather impressed with what Downlands get up to.
