Handpull cask at the Wonky Donkey, Fletton, Peterborough. Light to mid-gold, clear with just an uneven wisp of white head. Light hoppy nose on the nose, some punchy citrus but it's fairly modest. Sweet taste, nice balance with a little bit of astringency at the end. The hop bitterness spreads on the tongue in the finish. I like this, although it doesn't seem that it's up to mich in the first sip, it grows on me.

Shared half pint, cask ale at the brewpub. Clear golden body colour. Filmy layer, spotty lacing. Farmyard with fruity hints on the nose. Fruit hoppy taste with peach and pineapple. Rounded bittersweet ending. Refreshing (Huddersfield 09.07.2014).
