Elaborate, tropical fruit hop notes dominate the nose, whilst pale ale malts structure a decent body to complement a measured bitterness. Drink in the sun.

15/07/2012 Brasserie 4:20 (handpump). English Breakfast @ 4:20, Anisakis’s Birthday. Ambrata scarica, lievemente torbida, schiuma bianca morbida, abbondante e persistente. Naso citrico, magnifico, sentori di agrumi, limone, lieviti, malto. In bocca è eccellente, amara citrica, dissetante, con un bel retrogusto di tostato molto lungo. Corpo leggero, carbonazione soft. Magnifica bitter!

Cask @ Brussels British Embassy Jubilee garden party. Thanks Cécile. Dorée légère, col blanc fin. Arôme est léger et fruité laissant qcq notes houblonnées herbacées. En bouche, malt léger sur des pointes fruitées de citron. Herbacé avec un pétillant moyen. Le tout conserve un profile houblonné en ligne avec ce style anglais. Légère et agréable.

Cask (@Old Brewery Tavern, Canterbury): Pale golden to golden, small lacy head, grapefruity-hoppy nose with a malty background; moderate sweet-bitter flavour, light bodied but absolutely not watery; dryish and lingering bitter-grapefruity finish with a balancing amount of hops underneath. Extremely good for a beer of 3.8% ......
