On tap at Merton Beer Festival, Merton, Oxon, Friday 23rd 2018 in the company of Ratebeerians Bobinlondon and Ryan. This is a corker of a beer, juicy fruity, hazy, soft mouthfeel, with so many NEIPA/Pale Ale style attributes that you only normally pick up in an expensive can or Key Keg but delivered here to perfection in cask form by Gazza, Sue and Dave. It has fantastic condition a huge ice cream head, wonderful fresh fruity, hoppy nose and is wonderfully drinkable. If you I drank this all night at Merton and had nothing else I would be happy. Fabulous beer. If drinkability was a score here this would achieve 10/10 A8 A5 T9 P4 Ov17 4.3
