19/10/2019. Bottle from Magnum Wine, Swindon. Pours golden with an amber tint and a lasting slightly foamy off-white head. Aroma of citrus, hops, orange, malt, straw, caramel and butter biscuit. Medium sweetness and light to moderate bitterness. Medium body, oily sticky texture, soft carbonation. Good brew.

Cask (Overdraft, Winchester) - Dark amber/light brown in colour. Pine, grapefruit and some roasted and chocolatey notes in the aroma. Hoppy and slightly fruity taste with grapefruit, blackcurrant, pine and hints of liquorice. Quite nice but I do not know if the recipe has been tweaked since last year as it was darker than some of the other reviews described. Nice though.

Bottle picked up from XT Brewery Shop, consumed at home Saturday 14th April 2018, whilst cooking Herby Spatchcock Chicken with crisp Chickpeas and Wild Garlic Labneh another meal from the April BBC Good Food Magazine. Pours light amber with a slim white head. A touch pedestrian, toffee, light hoppiness and a fruity bite. It's ok but XT do much better. A6 A4 T6 P3 Ov12 3.1

Handpull cask at the Broood, Leicester. Dark reddish gold, mostly clear, with a small beige head and lots of lacing. Gorgeous grapefruit and mango aroma with a malty biscuit backbone. Bittersweet taste, nicely balanced sweet malt against the sharp Citra. A touch of sourness on the finish. Medium body, low carbonation. Love the hop, love the beer. It's simple but elegant.

Cask at GBBF �17, day one, 08/08/17. Clear golden with a decent off white cap. Nose is orange peel, straw, citric sherbet notes, grains. Taste comprises orange pith, melon, peach, grass, light bread. Medium bodied, soft carbonation, semi drying close. Decent enough gold ... would have liked the hops amplified a touch to make it a great!

GBBF Day 1. Cask. Clear gold beer, small pale cream colour head. Smooth palate, semi dry, modest carbonation. Light malts, mildly sweet. Decent orangey hops with mild pine. Some orang peel on the light finish. Tidy taste wise, but a little flat.
