Cask@Craft Beer Co Brixton, London (10/03/2019) - pours hazy gold a white head. Sweet fruity and malty with some pleasing notes of tangerine, grapefruit, peach, medium body and soft carbonation, touch of hop spice into the hoppy light bitter close. Tasty.

Handpull cask at Broood @ Vin Quatre, Leicester. Mid-golden and hazy with a thin uneven white head and a lot of lacing. Light aroma of peach, overripe pineapple, papaya. Tastes sweet and juicy with a slightest touch of astringency. Finish is more bitter near the finish as the hop oils accumulate on the tongue. Decent stuff if not particularly memorable.

Cask at Sanctuary, Liverpool. It pours hazy golden with a medium white head. The aroma is fresh, brighty zingy, big tangerine character, kumquat and orange sponge cake. The taste is firmly dry, bitter, pithy, zesty, tangerine, orange peel, satsuma, piney, touch of green hops and peppery spice with a dry, zesty finish. Medium body and fine, foamy carbonation. Bright and rather drinkable session gear.

Keg @ Nightjar, Hebden Bridge. Amber with a thick creamy-frothy head. It's very crisp and includes a tropical fruit aroma and taste.
