On the train from Hereford to Inverness, dispensed from an 18 pint bladder bag direct from the brewery thanks to Dosser, 18/10/13. Hazed golden blond with a thin off white head. Nose is citric fruit, bitter orange, light chemical notes. Taste is pithy oranges, pale malts, citrus fruit, more chemical notes, laced with diacetyl. Medium bodied, pretty flat. This isn’t too clever vergeing on meh !

Cask, handpump at FFTMC Friday 6th September 2013 Pours gold, white rim for a head, If I drank glue mixed with beer (which btw I don’t knowingly do) then this is how I imagine it might taste. Unlike my Bays Summer Ale this at least has some flavour even if it is chemically. Flat, lifeless gluey and boring. Have to say that FFTMC is really not doing it for me at the moment, all of the beers on the list looked pretty dull. A6 A3 T5 P2 Ov11 2.7
