Cask at the Harp - London. Pours clear gold with a creamy white head. Some bready, doughy malts abound, and there’s also bits of tangerine and hay. Light bodied with fine, creamy carbonation. Sweet, doughy malt finish, some hay and lightly astringent bitterness. Not a game-changer. So so.

Cask at the Southampton Arms, London on 27th November 2012. Slightly hazy amber with thin whitish head and plenty of lacing. Richly fruity aroma with summer berries. Vibrant berry fruits dominate a richly fruity and floral in-mouth bouquet. The fruity sweetnes undergoes a transition into a bittersweet finish. Zingy mouthfeel and medium body. Nice dessert novelty ale.

Cask, handpump, Chequers, Oxford, Friday 14th September 2012 Dark shimmering gold with a wispy white head. Not as good as the Harviestoun Wild Hop IPA but still decent. Some sweetness carries, a light fruity orangeyness, bitter at end the sweetness goes onto a dry finish. A7 A4 T7 P3 Ov13 3.4

On tap @ the Haymarket. Pours light amber with a decent head. The nose has an intense herbiness and so I guess the lavender makes sense. The taste has more lavender or thyme. The palate is well balanced but the high intensity of the lavender note is a little too much. Overall, very interesting but lacks drinkability.
