Gravity poured half-pint on 26th Aug 2015 at the Peterborough Beer Festival. Golden, clear body, wispy white head. Heavy on the citrus in both the nose and taste, too much for me to be honest. Some malt action in the flavour but the citrus dominance was not for me. Dry bitter finish, but too citrusy all round (scored objectively as possible).

From cask. Pours clear and golden yellow with a small white head. Aroma is toasted malty and slight fruity. Sweet, toasted and light grassy. Bitter. Smooth fruity and bitter finish.

Cask at the 21st Egham Beer Festival. Pale straw with a thin white head; grassy aroma; some lemony citrus and passion fruit flavours; and a dry pear juice finish.

Cask, gravity at Derby, Roundhouse, NWAF, Saturday 22nd February 2014 in company of Loz, dad and Pauline. Pours straw/light gold clear as yer’ like. Little bit of malt and interestingly a little touch of cheesiness. A tickly gentle bitterness its a bit malty perhaps but very fresh. Nice little tang at the end, its little dry, a nice beer.
