Sampled @ GBBF day 3. Lightly hazy yellow golden color, small white head. Smell and taste malts, lightly bitter, buttery, a weird touch of fruit. Low body, low to average carbonation. Meh.

On gravity at the Commercial Rooms (JDW), Bristol, March 2014. Golden in colour with a decent, white head. A hint of orange peel and leafy hop, but a bit underpowered. Ok.

Cask handpull at Metropolitan Spoons Baker Street. Clear pale gold lasting white head. It’s a golden ale. Some sherbert hop. Little bit of fruit salad on the aroma. A little underpowered in flavour and malt balance. Distinctly average.
