Bottle. Mitchell’s Wines, Sheffield. Clear amber. Film of sticky, white head. There’s some hops in there, but this is a big, buttery, diacetyl bomb. The bottle is fresh. The beer is awful. Shame. Was looking forward to this.

Bright clear amber - gold beer, small white head. Light thin pale malts. Mild citric hops - little orange peel, mellow marmalade. Trace of lemon. Smooth finish. Easy supping but Blue Monkey are normally a bit punchier than this.

Cask at CPK - London. Pours clear gold with a foamy white head. Nose has some tropical fruits, melon, hints of pine. Medium sweet flavor with bitter pine, dry grass, ripe tropical fruits, some dark citrus. Medium to full in body with fine carbonation. Lightly resinous to finish, some sticky fruits, a bit of citrus rind. Not bad.

Cask at Cask Pub & Kitchen. It pours clear amber with a medium white head. The nose is toast, pine, orange, tangerine and sherbet. The taste is bitter, pine, toast, grapefruit, orange rind, pithy lemon and touch of icing sugar with a dry, bitter finish. Medium body and fine carbonation. Flavoursome and rather drinkable. Good stuff.
