500ml bottle, batch 466, bought at Beautiful Beers. Shared with Finn. Firm white head leaving crocheted lacing on the glass, near-clear golden-brown body. Inviting smell of citrus, grapefruit to the fore. Grapefruit and mandarin to the taste profile followed by a rounded ending of citrus peels. Pretty good. (Hotel room, Cambridge 12.11.2021). --- Beer merged from original tick of Rockabilly on 02 Dec 2021 at 19:33 - Score: Appearance - 8 | Aroma - 6 | Flavor - 6 | Texture - 6 | Overall - 7.

Delt med Rune på rom 230 på Travelodge Cambridge Central. Gylden. Middels høyt tett skum som daler sakte. Tynn teppelacing. Tydelig sitronaroma. Smaken sitronskall. Tørr bitter avslutning. --- Beer merged from original tick of Rockabilly on 12 Nov 2021 at 22:03 - Score: Appearance - 8 | Aroma - 7 | Flavor - 7 | Texture - 6 | Overall - 6.

Thin rocky off white head left a cover on a caramel coloured still body. Minimal malt aroma. Medium bodied, soft on the tongue with a cloying back. Bitter tangy tastes with spices, tea, malt & sweet berries. Tasty.

23/4/2020. Sample courtesy of the SHIG, cheers! Pours clear golden with a small white head. Aroma is hoppy and grassy, malt, grapefruit and straw. Moderate sweetness and medium bitterness. Moderate body, soft carbonation. Slight dryness to finish. Quite nicely done, just about the best I’ve had from this brewery.

Cask at the Kings Head, Norwich, 20/11/16. Clear golden amber with a decent off white head. Nose is orange peel, straw, soft bread, peach. Taste comprises citric sherbets, soft bread, toasted grains, airy malts, lemon drizzle, orange pith. Medium bodied, soft carbonation, semi drying close with a juicy hop rinse. Decent enough hoppy cask affair.
