(Bottle) Pours clear golden with loose white head. Pleasant aroma of grassy hops with hints of biscuit and citrus. Light bodied with somewhat fizzy carbonation. Taste starts with pleasant citrusy tartness over some not very malty sweetness. There’s some bitterness in finish. Pleasant but not great.

Cask-conditioned and unfined at the Queens Vaults, Cardiff 3/4/2016. Golden in colour, with a decent, off-white, head. Aroma of stone fruits and leafy hops. Flavour was sweetish, with more apricot fruit, biscuity malts and a moderately bitter finish. Good.

50cl bottle from Aldi, Bracknell. A pale golden amber pour with a tight cream head; some weak peachy fruit on the aroma; crisp fruity taste with a light malty body; and a fresh grassy bitterness; giving a lingering bitter finish with some peach stones and sweet biscuit. Solid, but not very exciting.

26th Aug 2015, half-pint hand-pulled from the Brain’s Brewery Bar at the Peterborough Beer Festival. Light amber to golden colour with a white topping. Decent blend of fruity and malty aromas and flavours. Slight citrusy bitterness in the finish with a lingering dry aftertaste.
