0,44 boks fra Mossy Well sine kjøleskap, delt med Steven i hagen hans: uklar gylden med fint skum som varer. Guava, høy, furunål, fersken og hint av kokte grønnsaker. Fin bitterhet i avslutningen.

Can at JDW Moon under Water, Norbury (26/03/2023) - Antipodean hoppy with notes of white grape, melon, some light subdued tropical fruity notes, malty backing, piney bitter hoppy finish. Ok but think I prefer ELB cask offerings.

Can at home in Hackney - picked up from Budgens of Islington. Pours hazy yellow with a billowing, foamy white head. Lightly sweet, pithy and lightly minerally, lemon peel, grapefruit. Light bodied with fine to average carbonation. Dry, pithy finish, more citrus peel. Not bad.
