Handpull cask at the Kings Head, Leicester. As 'Green Duck Blonde' with a different style pump clip but at 4.2% and the previous rates sound like it's definitely the same beer. Mid-gold, clear with a soapy film of white head and lots of lacing. Aroma of tart lemon curd. Taste is bittersweet. Some chalky lemon, soft jammy notes, stale biscuit. Slightly more bitter in the finish. Watery body, soft carbonation. Competent.

Half-pint, cask ale, shared with Finn at Post Office Vaults. A clear golden body under a filmy layer, spotty lacing. Subdued biscuit and fruity hops on the nose. Ripe lemon fruity flavours alongside moments of grainy malts. Ends mid-sweet malt-fruity. Straightforward. (Birmingham 14.02.2023).
