Cask at Jewellers Arms, Birmingham. Pours golden amber with a medium sized foamy off-white head and excellent lacing. There’s a strong aroma of citrus with tangerine and melon there as well. In the mouth it is sweet and creamy but with a little underlying bitterness which gradually increases. Flavour has floral hops, stoen fruit and melon with hints of kiwi and lychee coming later. Finish is quite bitter. This is reasonable but too much fruity sharpness for my palate.

Cask half-pint at The Anvil, Shifnal on 22nd August 2021. Slight haze in the amber body, white head. Decent enough blend, mild maltiness in the nose and initial taste, hop bitterness arrives mid-sip.

Pale amber / deep gold with a frothy white head, and a slightly burnt caramel and floral aroma. The taste kicks off with a bitter kick, citrus notes up front with more floral characteristics in the background, with some sweet fruit malt also evident. The finish is long with a pretty high level of astringency
