Keg @ Draft House Chancery, London. Clear golden-amber with a small bubbly head. It has a dryish pale ale texture with a fuller bodied IPA strength. There's heavy caramels in both aroma and taste.

At the George Inn. Belleville Thames Surfer is a nice orange amber with a mild citrusy hoppiness. An English take on an APA I guess.

Bottle picked up at the brewery. It pours lightly hazy golden-amber with a medium white head. The nose is sweet, juicy, orange marmalade, brioche, creamy, apricot and pine. The taste is bitter orange, piney, lemon, grapefruit peel, salty edge, earth, light alcohol and varnish with a dry finish. Medium body and moderate carbonation. Not as clean as I would have hoped for. Drinkable though.

Bottle(@tibits, Heddon Street):Deep golden to copper coloured, hazy, firm creamy off-white head; moderate to solid piney and juicy grapefruity nose, backed by some caramel; moderate to solid bitter and sweet flavour, astonishingly light bodied; lingering piney and grapefruity finish with a nice caramelly balance. Well drinkable, very pleasant…
