Keg at BD Bush, 14/04/16. Clear golden amber with a well appointed white head. Nose is orange zest, straw, toasted malt, citric sherbets, lime cordial. Taste comprises bitter orange, light smoked straw, caramel wafer, light bread. Medium bodied, fine carbonation, semi drying close with a happy linger. Decent enough sessioner.

Can at home in London - picked up at Kris Wines. Pours mostly clear orange-gold with a lively, fluffy white head. The aroma holds bready pale malts, ripening citrus, melon, orange. Light to medium sweet flavour with more nicely rounded pale bread, more rich citrus fruits, tangerine and orange, light oily pine, bitter citrus rind. Light bodied with average carbonation. Lightly resinous on the finish, with further bready sugars, mellow piney and grassy bitterness, more juicy citrus, faint minerals, hay, melon. This beer really grew on me. Itโs got more body than you would expect. Great stuff. Super drinkable.

Several keg pints in the Williams Ale House. Clear gold beer, good white head. Palate is light and has a fine minerally crispness. Light clean pale malts, mildly sweet. Good piney hops, mild hop skunk and spice. Mellow marmalade. On the finish some lime peeps through. Wow! Great session IPA. Had a Lagunitas IPA at the same time, that beer has more intensity and hop skunk but little Roadie held itโs own. Great job!
