Can at home in Hackney - picked up via HOTM. Pours clear yellow-gold with a fluffy, white head. Medium sweet flavour with notes of bready pale malts, semi-ripe citrus fruits, low bitterness, a little honey, floral notes. Light bodied with average carbonation. A little grassy bitterness to finish, citrus rind. Enjoyable.

Can. Buxton online. Last one of the 5. Enjoyed rating these. All a bit unusual. Hazed pale gold. Decent Buxton swede. Weird how they’ve differed in colour and condition though, when it’s the same base beer. Anyway. Very lemony this one. Some meringue. Some mouldy lemon. Privet leaf. Ever so slightly stale malts. Taste has a caramel malt sweetness before a spicy peppery hop leaf bitterness kicks in. Doesn’t feel particularly bright overall. Big grassy spicy leafy bitterness to finish. Least favourite by some way.

Can picked up via Buxton webshop and sent to and shared with dad and Loz, Easter Monday 1st April 2024 listening to the Indigo Girls and dad is cooking a Lamb meal. Pours light straw colour with a white head, there is a nice buzz with this, super soft mouthfeel, middling sweetness. An interesting and yet assertive hop, it sort of creeps up, there is a little bit of lemon meringue and a little bit of a pithy citrus background. I'm now beginning to think that this is the best, mmhh....I need to think.

Can. A light haze on this straw gold beer, decent bubbly pale cream colour head. Light palate, mildly dry, decent fine minerally carbonation. The malt base seems sweeter on this one, just like 3. But it's the same malt base. Just saying what I'm tasting! CF316 hops being cooling pine and a light savoury skunk. Soft passion fruit and a little apricotty stone fruit. Pinch of very soft black pepper. Whisper of candy fruits on the airy finish. Another interesting hop from Charles Faram. All 5 of these experimental hops have been good but for me, 3 was an easy winner, followed by 1 and 4 in equal placing and 2 and 5 in equal placing.
