Cask at the Euston Tap, 16/12/13. Clear golden with a good sized off white head that retains well. Nose is citrus fruit, light grapefruit, orange sherbet, straw. Taste comprises orange pith, light tropical notes, melon, citric infused straw. Light to medium bodiment, fine carbonation, dry finale with grassy hop bitterness. Decent low ABV GB affair with a noticetable hop lick.

Cask at the Birmingham Beer Festival 2013. Poured a crystal clear light amber with a bubbly white head. The aroma is grassy hop with some stale malt. The flavour is weak bitter with a light bodied palate and a short bitter finish.

Aroma: Tangerine, lime and pine.

Appearance: Hazy golden body with a medium white head that gradually fades. Average carbonation. Good lacing.

Taste: Bitter taste that reminds me of sparkling water. Light citrus and pine.

Palate: Thin body with an oily mouthfeel. Fizzy carbonation.

Overall: A good session strength beer - light, crisp and moreish. Well suited to keg.

Cask @ Hanging Bat [230113]. Light straw, slight haze, dense white head, with good lacing. Nose of soft floral light citrus hops, light pale malt background, light mellow perfumy notes. Taste of light cereal malts, hint of violets (?), citrus and floral hops, very light pale malt background. Palate has a thin body and there is very dry finish which is much more bitter. Overall - I found the finish too dry, has a good floral hop aroma

Cask at the Euston Tap. Almost clear pale gold beer. Decent white head. Nice palate - good body for the abv and with nice fine carbonation. Fairly neutral pale malt. Decent but mellow hops - light pith, grapefruit and traces of tangerine and lemon. Whisper of grass. Finishes mild minerally crisp. Very drinkable and in great condition.

(Cask at Cask P&K, Pimlico, London, 19 April 2012) Golden colour with frothy, off-white head. Malty, hoppy nose with citrus, peaches, grass and fresh hops. Malty, fruity taste with notes of citrus, biscuity malt, tropical fruit and fresh hops in a finish with a refreshing bitterness. Light body, with a touch of sweetness. Refreshing and highly drinkable. Nice one.

Gravity cask at the Wandsworth Common BF, London. Pours clear gold with a faint, white film. Nice nose of orange citrus and straw. Quite enticing, actually. Light sweet flavor, some toasty straw bitters and orange zest. Light bodied with fine carbonation. Light sweetness to finish, with faint pine, citrus zest and straw. A very solid light golden ale.
