Cask-conditioned at the Hope & Anchor, Bristol, 12/7/2014. Golden with a tight, white, head. Easy drinking beer, with some straw, grassy hops, a hint of citrus fruit and moderately bitter finish. Ok, but with little character to speak of.

Cask @ The Moon Under Water, Wolverhampton after watching Derren Brown. Light and exceedingly hoppy with a fresh whisper of lemon. Clean, easy-drinking, tasty blonde.

Cask at the Fountain Inn, Walsall. Poured a crystal clear medium straw colour. The aroma is of citrus and pine as advertised. The flavour is weak bitter which does linger on the palate for a while. Carbonation is low. It’s a drinkable session blonde, but the flavour is weak and needs more body IMO.

GBBF. Light haze on this pale gold beer, little white head. A little lemon and marmalade citrus. Fairly dry finish. Decent enough!
