Keg draught at the brewery tap, Herne Hill. Light gold and clear with an uneven white head and lots of lacing. Candy sugar prominent in the scent, with notes of sweetened citrus peel. No surprise that this is a sweet beer, with enough hoppy kickback to give it character. Apricot, melon and even some banana in the aftertaste. Light and slightly watery body, soft carbonation. A lovely pale, if that little bit derivative.

Thin beige head left a cover on an opaque, sandy coloured body. Hoppy aroma with hints of malt. Medium bodied, minimal carbonation. To the fore there’s dull malts which quickly changes to bitter hoppy tastes with pith & tropical fruits.

Keg at the Euston Tap, West Lodge, 03/08/17. Murky amber orange with a moderarely appointed light beige cap that dissipates to a swirl. Noseach is caramel, light citric peel, toasted grains, bready vibes. Taste comprises airy malts, sweet overtures, light spice, orange pith, Rye bread, hint of soap. Medium bodied, fine carbonation, semi drying close with modest hop bitterness. So so for style.
