Clear bottle, obtained from a dodgy Off-Licence in Brixton and drank in my son's apartment down the road on 8th Aug 2019. Not too sure what's 'Yumi' about it? Anyway it poured a cloudy light yellow with a weak white head. Aroma held some light floral and citrusy esters, taste also similar with a bit of malt action for sweetness. Not very exciting to be honest.

Cask at the Hope and Champion, Beaconsfield. Poured a hazy golden colour with a lasting frothy white head. The aroma is grainy malt, light yeasty, dry hop. The flavour is moderate bitter with a light malt, dry floral hop bitter palate and a lingering bitter finish. Medium bodied with soft carbonation. Not great. I suspect the cask was about to die.

Cask at Jolly Sailor, Farnham. Nil aroma. Light amber. Creamy thick head. Sweet/umami. Malty with a caramel underside - caramel digestive? Develop a some bitterness towards the finish. Light bodied. Soft carbonation. Slipped down but a capitalised LOW KEY. Iโve already forgotten what I was drinking.
