From the very first draught, this pale hoppy ale will slake your thirst. A fusion of Maris Otter malts and Pilot and Fuggles hops explode on the palate as biscuit and juicy fruit flavours give way to citrus and berry hops, good hop aroma and hoppy after taste. A superb summer beer.

Handpull cask at the Queens Road Tap, Leicester..light to mid-gold and clear with a small film of white head. Aroma of hay, dry toast. Sweet slightly malty taste with a more bitter finish. Floral hops. Medium body, soft to no carbonation. Passable.

Cask at the London & North Western, Birmingham. Clear gold with small white top. Quite fruity - picking up white grape, melon, apricot as well as a fusty floral note. Semi-drying and a little light in body. OK.

Cask at Bird in Hand, Stafford. Pours a hazy very pale straw with a small white head and good lacing, Not much of an aroma, vaguely citrus with some cherries. Plenty of fruit in the flavour. Tangerine, grapefruit and melon along with some floral hops on a biscuity base. Bitterness comes through later on. Finish is dry with plenty of citrus. It’s a decent enough beer but too citrussy for my liking. Also, I wouldn’t call it a bitter (too hoppy) maybe a pale ale or a session IPA ?

Cask, shared with Finn at Standing Order (JDW) in Derby. Low white head blanketing the glass. Clear golden. Distant smell of oily hops and bread. Dough and juicy malts to the taste buds. Mid-dry bitter ending. Slightly beyond par, I would say (18.02.2016).
