From cask at Bow bar. Pours clear and golden yellow to orange with a lacing white head. Fruity hoppy aroma. Mild sweet at first with a decent bitterness following. Stays on the fruity side with a light bitterness into the finish. Good one.

Cask at Akkurat, Stockholm. A hazy amber beer with a beige head. The aroam is sweet malty and dominated by caramel, and so is the flavor, leading to a dry bitter finish.

Cask Conditioned at Akkurat, Stockholm
Hazy golden color; persistent thin head; sticky lace. The aroma takes some time to appear, but then it shows some very good hops, delicate, floral, fruity, and with a touch of peanuts. Good mouthfeel, due to the sweetness (more than the average Golden Ale), despite the probably low gravity; it has a crispy malt flavor, very fresh, with an excellent hopping and a touch of peanuts too. Delicate, elegant, complex and satisfactory Ale; excellent.

Cask at Akkurat, Stockholm. Dark amber. Grassy, sweet and fruity with caramelly chewy malt and notes of orange. A very drinkable beer in excellent condition with a lot of substance.

(Cask at Akkurat, Stockholm) Golden amber colour with frothy white head. Fruity nose with dark citrus, orange peel, mandarin and earthy hops. Fruity taste with notes of orange, apricots, mandarin and smooth notes of earthy hops in a fairly short finish. Balanced bitterness, mainly dry, medium to light body. Fresh ale with a nice, balanced bitterness.
