Cask-conditioned at the Three Tuns, Bristol 8/4/2016. Amber in colour, with a decent, off-white, head. Aroma of tangerines caramel and leafy hops. Flavour of cereal malts and citrus fruits, leading to a moderately bitter finish. Fine.

Bottle at The Library, Cowley Road, Oxford, Monday 15th February 2016 prior to Ezra Furman gig with John. Amber in colour with a white head. Fruity and with caramel, bit cold it’s watery, (thinnish) with a steady maltiness. Can’t get excited about this sadly this is a bit boring. A6 A4 T6 P3 Ov12 3.1

Gravity, sampled at the microbrewery in Gipsy Hill. Filmy layer over a near clear amber-brown body. Nuts, herbal hops and citrus on the nose. Malt-fruity flavours of nutty malts and dark grapefruit. Bittersweet ending. Tasty, freshly made beer (London 28.11.2015).

Hazy deep orange color, steady off-white head. Yeasty, a bit musty fruity aroma. Medium-bodied. Fruity, a bit grainy-yeasty, herbal bitterness in the finish. Aroma was letdown, flavor a bit better.
