Huge thanks to Erzengel for sharing. Bottle looks interesting. Beer in the glass deep golden, nice head. Soapy hoppy aroma. Starts dry malty, more and more sourish-hoppy, unbalanced bitter background. Finish dry-bitter. Okay, but nothing special...

Many thanks to Simon! Neutral grainy nose. The beer starts neutral with a grainy back. Slightly sour with a neutral and dry body. Grain there, hints of hops with not much bitterness. Neutral grainy finish.

Rocky white head stayed on an unclear pale gold body. Fruity medicinal aroma. Medium bodied, soft on the tongue with a light clean back. Herbal, fruity, tangy, citrus & lightly hopped tastes. Quaffer

2/3/2019. Bottle from the 8 Sail Brewery Shop, Heckington. Gusher, living up to its name! Pours clear dark gold with a frothy off-white head. Aroma of citrus fruit, hops, malt, caramel and berries. Medium sweetness, moderate bitterness. Moderate body, slight oily texture, average carbonation. Citrus finish. Not bad.
