Cask at White Horse, Banbury. Pours a hazy pale lemon yellow, with a greenish tinge, and a foamy white head. The aroma is mainly lemongrass but with hints of malts and creeals. Mainly lemon in the flavour, but in a good smooth way (lemonade, not lemon rind). Grains and creamy biscuits as well with a slightly bitter finish. I enjoyed this more than I expected.

On cask at the Highwayman's Pub in Sourton, Devon. Appearance - golden with a proportionate head and a slight haze. Nose - lemon and pith. Some biscuit. Taste - lemon barley water. Palate - light bodied with a creamy texture. Dry refreshing finish. Overall - was good enough to require going back for several more.

Cask at Merton Beer Festival, Thursday 25th February 2016 (a sneaky beer pre festival) Pours gold another beer that looked perfect on the pour with a lovely snowstorm of tiny bubbles eventually settling to leave a slim white head. Steady bitterness a little cereal with a lemony edge, however not quite as hop forward as I had expected. A6 A5 T6 P3 Ov12 3.2
