Bottle from Micro Beer Crate, online. Pours a clear dark gold/light amber, small white head, leaves a wispy top. Aroma of orange peel, sweet biscuit malts, somewhat floral. Taste again is quite biscuity in the malts, sweet, marmalade, grains, tangy finish with light bitterness. Light to medium bodied, moderate carbonation. Its a typical English traditional style brewery bottled beer attempt at an APA but in those parameters its one of the good ones. Simple but pleasant.

Keg at the Craft Beer Shop Chesham, 02/06/23. Lightly hazed golden yellow with a well presented white cap. Nose is melon, grass, tangerine, citric tinged straw. Taste comprises orange zest, melon, chalky mineral bite, grass, papaya. Medium bodied, fine carbonation, semi drying close spliced with mellow light juice laden hop bitterness. Passable pale ... no shocker but rather heavy on the minerals.

500ml bottle direct from the brewers. Poured a crystal clear golden colour with a short-lived, frothy white head. The aroma is grainy malt, zesty sherbet citrus fruits. The flavour is moderate bitter and sweet, with a smooth, mango, light juicy lemon citrus, light fruity hop bitter palate and a lingering bitter finish. Medium bodied with average carbonation. Fresh and juicy and nicely complemented with just enough bitterness.
