Cask at the Jolly Butchers - Stokey. Pours unclear reddish brown with a small, creamy topping. Lightly toasted grains in the nose, ripening citrus. Light sweet flavour with more grainy character, mild piney bitterness, orange peel. Light to medium bodied, oily, with soft carbonation; so so condition. Finishes with more piney notes, some leaves, grains. Not the best.

Cask @ Drink? Hebden Bridge. Crisp tasting and deep golden coloured with a thick head. Mildly malty with a mid bitterness, and an underlying fruitiness in both aroma and taste.

Can 330ml (K-Supermarket City, Pori, BBE 08/2017)
A bit hazy orange-amber color, big white head, aggressive foam. Light aroma has some riped tropical fruits and citrus. Dishwash cleanser. Light-bodied. Citrus, pale malts, a bit acidic even. Quite easy citrus-fruity session IPA. Not very interesting.
