Cask-conditioned at the Lime Kiln, Bristol 26 May 20201. Golden in colour with a frothy, white, head that left plenty of lacing down the glass. A touch of citrus hops, crisp rich tea malts, some jammy sweetness and a lingering, dryish, finish. Good.

Hand-pulled half (cask) on 2nd May 2018, at The Station Hotel, Oakengates, Shropshire. Golden/amber body, white crown. An easy drinking brew with a slight orange juice aroma and taste, subtle rather than 'in your face' though.

Fra cask på Beer Cellar, Exeter 28 Sep 16. Gylden. Filmskum. Stråfarget. God honningaroma. Smaken også litt honning. Blir tørr & syrlig etter hvert.

Poured from cask, half pint shared with Finn at Beer Cellar, Exeter. Clear amber.gold body, solid lacing from a patchy white head. Hop fruity aroma of fresh orange. Spiced fruity taste, hints of orange and peaches, mild caramel malts beneath. Smooth, short-lived fruity bitterness to the ending. Refreshing (Pub crawl in Exeter 28.09.2016).
