Cask at Brodies BF. Clear gold pour with a bubbly head. Light citrus and pine, grass in the nose. Lightly sweet flavor with a great hop character of grass and slightly resinous pine, along with hints of grapefruit. Light bodied with fine carbonation. Good hop finish, very fresh tasting, well balanced. Great beer, one of the festival’s best.

LIVE RATING: Cask at the Jolly Butchers, London on 13th February 2011. Hazy gold with thin white head giving full initial lacing. Pleasant grassy hop scents initially. Exquisite burst of grass, fine grapefruit and cigar to bonfire smoke in-mouth and a delicious aftertaste of grassy bitterness. This beer is fantastic! If you see it go for it!

From cask at King William IV. Pours almost clear and golden orange with a small white head. Aroma is mild malty and rather hops fruity, peachy and citrusy. Bone dry and yet crisp hops fruity. Dry bitter and cleansing finish.
