No it's not a Cadbury's Cream Egg, It's a 9.2% Imperial Pale Ale. Bags of hops and bags of flavour.

Can from Indie Craft Beer, Kendal. Golden with a creamy head and a small carbonation. Strong tasting hoppy beer, with its strength quite prominent in taste, however it's got a good smoothish mouthfeel. All hoppy nose.

330ml can. Clear golden amber with an off-white head. Aroma of tropical fruits, caramel. Taste is sweet, caramel, tropical fruits, finish is bitter and feels somewhat boozy despite being 7% which is odd. Medium body, soft carbonation.

On tap at Cask Pub & Kitchen, pours a clear golden with a small white head. Aroma brings out piney and resinous hops upfront, with a caramel biscuity malt backbone. Flavour is fairly sticky on the resinous hops, with light pine and caramel malt. Bitter and sticky - nicely balanced. Solid.

Keg at Alphabet Brewery Tap, Manchester, Saturday 15th July 2017 Pours dirty, murky brown with a slim white head. Not a lot on the nose, and in the mouth it fails to excite. It’s hoppy but a touchy chewy, some caramel amongst the hoppiness. Not really doing it for me. A6 A3 T6 P3 Ov12 3.0

Keg at the brewery tap. A clear dark orange coloured pour with a sticky white head. Aroma is toffee sweet malts, hit solvent alcohol, jammy strawberry. Flavour is composed of semi sweet toffee, malts s, brown sugars, bark, mild infected, grassy hop, jammy fruits. Palate is oily hop resin, little hit alcohol. Palate E is chewy, moderate carbonation. Woody. Meh. Lingering hot alcohol.
