Hand-pulled pint at the Pheasant, Wellington Shropshire on 8th Oct 2020. Off-white crown on a clean golden body. Grapefruit esters and flavours in this hoppy, dry APA, other citrus fruits join in for a bit of balance and a trace of sweetness.

Cask-conditioned at the Lime Kiln, Bristol 3/3/2017. Deep gold with a frothy, off-white, head. Sweet, cereal malts, some citrus hops and tropical fruits, with a touch of red berry sweetness, leading to a moderately dry finish. Fine.

Cask @ Microbar, Manchester. Golden with a thick frothy head. Crisp and hoppy in character, with a light drinkable session texture. There’s some mild sugars in both aroma and taste.

Pale blond colour. Aroma has a lot of grapefruit and citrus. Flavour is milder but still pleasant.
