Cask at the Dancing Man, Southampton on 13th September 2024. Rated as a novelty ale. Thickly hazy yellow-amber with shallow white foam and plenty of lacing. Sweet citrus and tropical fruits in aroma. Grapefruit and pineapple in-mouth, and a bitter finish with sweet fruity undertones. Full bodied with a zingy mouthfeel.
