Cask at the Flute & Flagon, Solihull. Clear gold with small creamy white top, great lacing. This one was quite peach, orange and biscuit notes with a grassy to pithy citric bitterness. Smooth bodied. Decent.

Cask-conditioned at the Commercial Rooms (JDW), Bristol October 2023. Golden in colour, with a slight, white, head. Citrus hops, some tangerine and apricot fruit character, grainy malts, leading to a dryish finish. Good.

[Cask at the Back of Beyond (JDW), Reading.] A bright amber pour with a loose white head; fresh citrusy aroma; dry floral taste with some lemon; and a crisp, tangy citrus finish. Very drinkable.

Hand-pulled pint in my local Wetherspoons on 13th October 2023. Golden body, white crust. I can't decide if I like 'Ernest Hops' or not, this is, or seems to be a single hop beer and the citrusy nature of it didn't really work for me, the malt part was fine.
