Handpull cask at the Kings Head, Leicester. Mid-gold and clear with a small white head. Light notes of pear and melon with some grassy character. Bittersweet balanced taste with pear drops and orange peel, leading to some slightly sulphurous bitterness in the finish. Soft carbonation, big oily body. I like this.

500ml bottle @ 5%. Dark gold/bronze colour, clear, small white head, thin retention. Aroma of caramel malts, citrus and herbs. Taste begins malty, orange citrus and herbs, then softer fruits before a moderate bitterness comes through. Quite dry throughout with a moderate body and carbonation. Decent.

Bottle from Ales by Mail. Pours clear golden with airy off-white head. Clear aroma of hops and fruit, with notes of yeast and citrus. Bitter, hoppy flavour, with dusty and fruity notes. Malty touches and notes of citrus. A little watery. OK but nothing special.
