Bottle from Cheers Liquor Store, Todmorden. Golden with a thin head and a small carbonation. Tropical fruit hopped in both aroma and taste with a fair citric bitterness about it. There’s a decent lingering creaminess in its texture and aftertaste.

Draft. Clear yellow color, medium white head. Aroma of pine and raw bread. Taste is herbal citrus. Far more hoppy than most cream ales.

Bottle at home in London - picked up at Kris Wines. Pours clear yellow-gold with a foamy white head. The aroma has dried citrus, lemon, crackery pale malts, hints of straw and pine needles. Light sweet flavor with crispy pale bread, more crackers, wood, grass, grain, rindy lemon, pithy grapefruit. Light to medium bodied with average carbonation. Faintly resinous to finish with prominent rindy lemon, a little salty pine, dry and crackery pale malts, crispy hay, nips of grain husk. There’s a nice, clean bitterness to it. Good beer.

Bottle from The Bottle Shop London and drunk at home. Hazy gold lasting white head. Grapefruity hop aroma. Quite lovely. Yes, very drinkable. Good grapefruit throughout. Some bitterness on the finish. I thought very good. A drinkable hoppy pale ale. Bit over carbonated.

Keg @ Craven Arms, Birmingham - MTB event. Pours pale, hazy gold. Smooth sweet malts with bitter grapefruit, tropical fruit and light herbs. I think the ’cream’ element is a ’power of suggestion’ type thing, as this seems more of a hoppy pale ale to me. A good one tho.

Lightly hazy paleish gold beer, good pale cream colour head. Palate is light and minerally crisp. Light malts bring mild creamy sweetness. Hops are nicely bitter yellow grapefruit with a trace of orange. Minerals. Light finish. Not getting the cream ale vibe here, whatever that is even! But it’s a refreshing beer.
