Thin frothy head left a cover on an unclear amber coloured body. Earthy, light malt & fruity aroma. Medium bodied, minimal carbonation & clean with a dry back. Earthy, bitter, stone fruit & marmalade tastes. Nice.

Keg @ Nightjar, Hebden Bridge. Golden-amber with a head. Has mild toffee notes with a hint of fruit in its nose, but only dry-hopping in taste.

Cask at the Peterborough beer Festival 2017.. A translucent golden orange coloured pour with a a loose white head. Aroma is juicy jammy citrus, hints of peach, apricot. Palate is semi sweet little creamy, moderate carbonation.. Flavour is composed of semi sweet malts, apricot peach jam. Decent Enough.

500ml bottle from AshtonMcCobb. Many thanks! Pours clear gold with moderate white head. Aroma is light malts, floral. Taste is clean and smooth, sweet bready malts with pleasant floral whisps, hints of crisp fruit, very light tropical fruit notes. Nice.

Cask, sampler tray at Six Degrees North. Patchy off-white head to a clear golden-brown body. Dried fruity nose. Sweet fruity flavours, moments of apricot and banana, joined by a caramel touch. Oily hops to a bittersweet ending. Alright, too sweet for a higher score (Aberdeen 12.04.2016).

Bottle courtesy of TVT Travels. Cheers Tim! Hazy, orange gold. Messy, lasting, bright white head. Nice balance of fusty orange hop, and slightly spicy, biscuity malts. There’s a light caramel note in there. Some peach. Some peach stone. Light mineral. Taste is light bitter. Mineral dry. Moderate body. Drinks under the ABV. Finishes light bitter, with a fairly dry close. Not a hop bomb, but easy drinking. Nice one.
