Handpull cask atvthe King's Head, Leicester. Light gold and clear with a small film of white head. Sweet aroma, lemon gummies, citrus zest, honey. Sweet taste with a very little bitterness hitting back. Moee citrus and a little soap on the finish. Body on the light side, a little oily. Decent if a tiny bit artificial.

Cask at Old Dolphin, Derby. Pours a pale yellow with minimal white head. The aroma is just vague hints of citrus and hops. In the mouth it has a watery texture with the predominant flavour being lemon overlaying a base of biscuits, Some general fruitiness too and floral hops come through eventually. The lemon persists into the finish which is otherwise dry. This is not at all bad.

Bottle pour at Carlton Town FC - Golden body, with foamy towering head. Nose is a beautiful fresh citussy aroma, with oranges to the fore. A bit of a disappointment in the taste though with a bit of stingy hop, spicy hay and bitterness. Average.

Cambridge Blue Summer Beer Festival 2013, Cambridge

Cask. Golden color with small white head. Aroma of malt, citrus, citrus zest. After promising aroma, taste was big disappointment, very bland malty base, with very shy citrus hops.

Das letzte Bier, das wir damals bei unserer Flipside-Verkostung hatten. Der krönende Abschluss mag ausbleiben, es ist aber auch kein Ende mit Schrecken. EIn einfaches, normales Pale Ale mit brauchbaren, aber auch nicht großartigen Aromen. Ein klassisches Bier, das man immer wieder trinken kann, aber auch nichts spezielles.
