Hand-pulled pint on Sunday 19th October 2025, Pheasant Inn & Brewhouse. Clear and clean golden pour, white crown on top. I'm not a big fan of single hop beers as a rule, but the Willamette held it's own in this brew. Floral, herbal and slightly fruity in nature, helped by a decent malty base (Being 5.2% ABV also helped).

Cask at Ealing Beer Fest 25. Clear gold. Frothy foamy white head has a bald spot. Aroma has sweet but citrusy notes. Grains and malts. The flava is similar with additional syrupy fruit sweetness. Light-medium bodied. Slick. Soft-fizzy carbonation. Dry finish. Nice enough.

Cask. Wellington. As Neepsend Kipa. The “Brew” is superfluous. Clear gold. Tight white head. Lightly bready malt. Bit of herbal spice hop leaf. Some lemon. Good body. Easy drinking affair in good nick. Crisp bitter finish.
