Tap at the Upminster Taproom. Poured a clear medium amber with a thin whispy white head. The aroma is big tropical fruit. The flavour is moderate bitter with a mellow malt woody hop bitter palate. Medium bodied with soft carbonation.

Cask-conditioned at the Seven Stars, Bristol 8/3/2016. Deep amber in colour, with a decent, off-white, head. Weetabix malts, some fruity sweetness, leading to a moderately bitter finish. Fine.
