Can at home in Hackney - picked up from HOTM. Pours lightly hazed yellow-gold with a small, foamy white head. Light-medium sweet flavour, nice mellow dankness, lemon rind, a little peach, white grape, melon. Light bodied with fine to average carbonation. Balanced finish. Very tasty and drinkable.

Can. Buxton online. Misted pale gold with a signature Buxton swede, being soppy and messy sticky and lacing. Looks well. Lots of lime juice upfront. Lime zest. Bit of unripe pineapple. Some grassy notes. Malts come across clean and mineraly. Pretty curious overall but not in a bad way. Taste is a tad dry first with moderate citrus lightly tangy bitterness. Light and fresh on the palate with zippy carbonation. Decent clean hit of bitterness to finish. Nice. Odd. But nice.

Can picked up via Buxton webshop and sent to and shared with dad and Loz, Easter Monday 1st April 2024 listening to Big Special and dad is cooking a Lamb meal. Pours hazy yellow with a white head, nice softness and a nice streaky citrus bite. A little furry bitter rub, this is good, in fact very good.

Can. Hazy straw gold beer, good bubbly pale cream colour head. Light smooth palate, mildly dry, good fine minerally carbonation. The malt profile is light and sweet enough, much like 1 and 2 in this series, whereas 3 seemed sweeter despite being the same bill. I dunno! Just tasting them innit? Anyway, CF315! Good cooling pine and a mild pinch of black pepper (common trait in these experimental CF hops). This one has some nice smooth berry fruits, soft blueberry and lesser red berries, a backdrop of pineapple. Trace of herb. Yeah, definitely a berry vibe here but delivered in a very piney way and with some pineapple juice. Interesting. Equally tied with 1 for me. So in descending order, 3, 1 and 4, 2.
