Clear pale gold with a frothy white head and a floral aroma, with a touch of bready malt and yeast apparent. Dry bitterness prevails in the flavour, with some floral and light malt notes, light bodied and very slightly grainy

Can @Les Vignerons (Rome). Dorata, un filo velata, schiuma bianca media. Al naso note citriche, erbacee, leggera resina, biscotto. In bocca è equilibrata, con attacco maltato leggero e chiusura amara distintiva, ma non eccessiva. Corpo esile, carbonazione media. Davvero niente male!

Cask @ Old Coppers Malt House, Church Stretton after a MTB session at Hopton Woods. Drunk alongside the pub's own Randall-hopped version. Pale gold appearance, white head. Textbook flinty bitter pale with gentle citrus. Fine, but much preferred the pubs Randall-hopped version with distinct NZ hops and a mellowed bitterness.

Handpull cask at the Crossing, Burton. Light to mid-gold, clear. Small white head with a shitload of lacing. Spicy hop in the aroma, some resin, white chocolate, butter. Sweet taste, mostly malt focused with a good dollop of astringent hop in the long finish. Not particularly exciting but quaffable enough.

Golden colour with lasting head. Aroma and flavour have very light fruity hop notes. This is certainly a far better alternative for a mass produced lager. Ultimately though, a poor pale ale.

Cask pint in The Bear, Bridgnorth Shropshire on 16th Feb 2018. Pale golden body, clean and clear, on top a white crown. Hop centric with piney and citrus notes evident in both the aroma and taste. The malts take a backward step in this brew, decent bitterness from start to finish, liked it.
