Cask at Tap East. Hazy gold lasting white head. It’s citrus hoppy. It’s mildly hoppy. Decent citrus decent hop. OK.

Cask @ Shrewsbury Beer Festival 2014. Pleasant hoppy pale with a light swirl of floral citrus.

Keg at the Lyric, Soho. It pours lightly hazy gold with a decent white head. The nose is soft, white bread, grainy, bitter-sweet and mild floral notes. The taste is crisp, bitter, doughy malts, floral, minerals, lemon rind and a touch of grapefruit with a dry finish. Medium body and moderate carbonation. It doesn’t blow me away exactly, but it is rather well-rounded and drinkable. OK.

Keg at Refectory (Northern Monk) Leeds ,Saturday 21st February 2015 Pale gold with a white head, lively carbonation. Hoppy and a decent bitter bite, a better beer than the Indian Spiced Ale, but still yet to have a good golden beer from these guys. Dry finish, it’s fine. A6 A4 T6 P3 Ov13 3.2

@Indyman - Clear blond. Very malty aroma. Smooth texture. Flavours of malts, peas. Sweet vegetable taste.

Craft Clerkenwell. Cask. Clear gold beer, no real head. Palate is smooth and light. Very modest carbonation. Light malts. Light floral hops, a kind of sweet and sour floralness. Traces of marmalade and lemon. Light finish. Not a bad beer but the condition seems a bit tired.
