Keg at Mad Squirrel, High Wycombe. Hazy yellow with a white head. Peach up front, with orange and juicy fruits tropical sweets coming after. Not as punchy as the description or the barman would have had me believe (you'll want to finish on this, you won't be able to taste anything else afterwards), just a very drinkable, sweetish, juicy beer that - dangerously - doesn't taste anywhere near as strong as it is. Nice.
