Cask at GBBF 25. Slightly opaque copper gold. Frothy foamy translucent white head. Aroma has sugary fruity sweetness with a nettle bitterness and resin. Flavourwise it's similar. Peppery. Slightly underlying veg soup. Long dry somewhat astringent finish. Nice.

Cask at GBBF 2015 - London. Pours cloudy gold with a frothy, white head. The aroma holds pithy citrus, rind, dry pale malts. Light sweet flavour with pleasant pithy citrus, grapefruit, tangerine. Light bodied with fine carbonation; OK condition. Good and juicy in the finish, more pith, rind, mellow sweetness. Solid.

Taster at brewery. Golden pour, light cloudiness, thin head, solid lacing. Sweet, grainy aroma with fruity notes. Taste is well balanced malt and hops, bready, crisp, snappy, smooth. Hoppy finish with some nice piney citrus notes.

Pours a yellow gold from a tap. Malty aroma and flavor, a bit of hoppy lemoniness. Okay beer.
