Cask-conditioned at the John Moore (JDW), Glasgow May 2023. Golden in colour, with a slight, white, head. A few citrus hops, some tangerine character, sweet rich tea maltiness leading to a moderately bitter finish. Fine.

Cask handpull at the PoW, Aberdeen. It pours crystal clear pale golden with a thick, fluffy and lasting white cap. The aroma is fresh, clean, lemony citrus vibes, touch of grapefruit, pithy, fresh floral accents and airy light malt. The taste is crisp, dry, clean, punchy bitterness which lingers throughout, bright, floral, peppery spice, waxy citrus peel, lemon and grapefruit with a drying finish. Light+ body and moderate, fluffy cask carbonation. Superb condition. Great summer quencher.

Third at Holyrood 9A. Golden pour with a light haze, small creamy head. Aroma isn't much, very faint crackers. Taste is grainy and fruity with an odd bitterness that doesn't seem to add up. Very subdued flavors.

Cask. Sheffield Tap. Clear, straw colour. Sparkler induced creamy head. Nose has grain. Pappy bread. Green leaf. Taste is horribly bitter. Really quite astringent. Light body. Low carbonation. Bitterness to finish. Grim. Left it.

Cask at the Greyfriar, Reading. A very cloudy, almost opaque, pale straw colour with a tight white head; floral aroma with some citrus; smooth bready body with a fresh citrusy taste, some mandarin and lemon. Pleasant to drink but not to look at.
