Keg at the brewery. Cock tavern. Translucent yellow straw coloured pour with a fleeting halo off white head. Aroma is Belgian yeast and berry hop. Flavour is composed of crisp cirrus lemon. Lightly salty with crisp sharp citrus, I like this a lot. Palate is medium bodied with crisp carbonation

Keg at the Cock. It pours hazy gold with a small white head. The nose is soft, doughy, light spice, orange, apricot and nail varnish remover. The taste is crisp, orange peel, dough, spice, touch of bitterness, banana sweets and toasted hay with a dry finish. Medium body and fine carbonation. Rather drinkable. Decent.

Keg at the Cock, 24/05/14. Clear pale golden wth a moderate off white covering that stays to party. Nose is candied fruit peel, yeast esters, clove, light nana, bubblegum, bread dough. Taste comprises lemon rind, spice, light vanilla, bready pangs, sharp citric peel, yeast esters, light soap. Medium bodied, fine carbonation, drying close. Ok Belgian number, would probably have hit 3.5/6 but for the soap I was getting which detracted from the overall enjoyment of this one.

Keg at the Cock Taverna - London. Pours clear, pee yellow with a foamy, white head. The nose has some doughy, pale bread, suggestions of Belgian yeast. Light to medium sweet flavor with pretty clean pale malt structure, some sourdough bread, salty biscuits, faint phenols, bubblegum, flinty minerals, nips of lemon zest. Medium bodied with average carbonation. Pretty well balanced on the finish, more pale bread, light Belgian yeast characteristics, minerals, lemon rind. Nice beer.

Cock Tavern. Keg. Thanks to Johannes for the cellar run. Lightly hazy pale gold beer, good white head. Palate is very light and airy. Semi dry with fine carbonation. Light floral yeast, semi sweet. Whispers of citrus and tropical fruits. Very light sherbet vibe. Finishes light and airy, Super light and tasty but it could have been a belter if had more intensity.
