Cask at CBC, Clerkenwell on 14th December 2018. Slightly greenish gold with shallow white foam and spot lacing. Spicy and grassy aromas. Crisply herby and spicy in-mouth with a lush herby hop finish. Smooth mouthfeel and light body, somewhat soft and velvety texture.

On cask at the Guildford Arms. Appearance - golden with a thin head. Nose - lemon and floral. Taste - lemon and herbs. Dry medicinal. Palate - light bodied dry and lean through the finish. Overall - ok but a bit challenging.

Cask half-pint in The Station, Oakengates Shropshire on 13th Nov 2016. Very pale blonde with a white head that gave some good lacing. Slight citrus leanings in both the nose and taste, subtle flavours I suppose and refreshing. But not a lot happening to excite your senses.

Cask-conditioned at the Lime Kiln, Bristol 23/12/2015. Golden with a frothy, white, head. Tropical fruit and grassy hop aroma. Flavour was dominated by citrus fruits, accompanied by digestive malts leading to a lengthy, bitter, finish. Good.
