Bottle courtesy of Mum and Keith, cheers!, had this at home Sunday 12th August 2018 after Fairport Annual Reunion Festival at Cropredy, Oxon. Pours light amber than gold, with a slim white head atop. Much like the other beer of theirs I had earlier this year is showing a lot of boiled sweets, not much in the way of hops, frankly it's pretty disappointing. A5 A3 T5 P3 Ov10 2.6

Half-pint, cask ale at Lamb and Flag, Worcester. Filmy layer blanketing the glass. Near-clear amber-gold body. Smell of pale malts and ripe citrus. Mixed taste of vague lemony hops and apricot. Mild bitter twist to the ending. Rather flat in the mouth. Accepted. (Sunday pub crawl in Worcester with TheCellarer and Snegurochka 08.07.2018).

Bottle. B&M. Clear, light amber. Decent, dense, lasting, white head. Nose has sweet, toffee malts, and stewed, acrid bitter hop. Taste is mostly sweet, with a cooked bitterness. Light body. Pretty watery. Soft carbonation. Stewed bitterness to finish.

Bottle from Oddbins. Appearance - golden with a decent head. Nose - pale malt and caramel (might be butterscotch but benefit of the doubt given). Light lemon or lime. Taste - more of the same. Palate - light to medium bodied with a creamy texture and a fairly good finish. Overall - something not quite right with this.

Bottle at home, from a local Co-Op, 20/02/16. Clear golden with a decent off white covering. Nose is buttery popcorn, light citric notes, grain, light bread. Taste comprises light bread dough, crackers, lemon peel, less better than on the nose. Medium bodied, fine carbonation, semi drying close. Mediocre golde ... too buttery and lacking any real flavour.
