(Cask at White Horse, Parson's Green, London, 28 July 2019) Amber colour with creamy, off-white head. Malty, hoppy nose with apricots, orange peel, resin and hints of toast. Malty, fruity taste with notes of dried apricots, orange peel, pine needles, citrus and a balanced citric bitterness. Light body, quite dry. Tasty and refreshing. Quite nice.

Pours a clear orange amber colour with a small off white head that quickly became a thin layer. Aroma is largely malt and caramel with some hop notes. A modrately sweet taste, caramel, malty earthy flavours and decent hop bitteness.
