Cask at The Pocket, Islington, Thursday 12th June 2025 in the company of Rhys and Stefana. Hazy gold, edging towards light amber with a small white head. Nice aroma, citrus, with mostly orange and grapefruit, these aromas also show in the mouth. Good session beer.

[Cask at the Lord Raglan, Wokingham.] A hazy pale amber pour with a tight white head and lots of lacing on the glass; citrus aroma; light orangey citrus taste with a bready body; and a touch of grapefruit bitterness to finish. A light refreshing bitter.

--Cask at The Flintgate, Weybridge. -- Hazy pale golden. Aroma of grapefruit and tangerine. Dry with light body and rounded mouthfeel. Crisp bread and citrus. Mid bitter finish. Nicely drinkable, but perhaps not all that interesting.
