Bottle from Aldi. Hazy golden body with tiny yeast flecks floating around. Medium white head that holds well. Excellent lacing. Aroma of lime, red apple and grapefruit. Flavour of yeast, citrus and biscuit. Very drinkable. Medium body with a powdery texture. Soft fizz. A lovely beer.

Lively golden ale with a thick, frothy head. Aroma is fairly standard sour-citrus and the first taste, which is quite grapefruity, doesn’t suggest anything remarkable. There is then more which starts to come through. The malt is subtle but really hits home as you get through the beer with a biscuity, cereal sort of flavour underpinning it all to give it a bit of depth. Despite not being especially strong it feels like one to savour rather than guzzle.

On cask at Holyrood 9A Appearance - pale lemon with a decent head. Nose - lemon and some background cereal. Taste - creamy lemon tart. Almost lemon cheesecake. Palate - medium bodied with a creamy texture and a dry refreshing finish. Overall - synergy with this one. Generally unexciting but it comes together well.

Cask at Thomson’s. Pours amber gold with a good white head & lacing. Subtle tropical fruit and cereal aromas, more on the taste, and a slightly soapy mouthfeel and flavour. Bit astringent on the finish. Not bad.

Bottle shared at CPK, London. Gushes a bit upon opening. Pours a lightly hazy gold with a creamy, white head. Dusty malt nose with hints of tang and dirt. Light sweet flavor, certainly tangy though not fully infected. There’s some hay and straw, hints of dirty grass. Light bodied with high carbonation - excessively high, as with most infected-ish beers I’ve had. Light sweet finish, mild citrus, dirty hay. Too bad the condition is off. The bottle had a good five months before going bast its Best Before date, so definitely a pity.

Bottle from Deeside Drink Emporium, Banchory. It pours hazy straw yellow, with a thick fluffy white head. The nose is white bread, hay and dough. The taste is citrus fruit, floral, grass, wood and solid bitterness, with a very dry finish. Medium body and moderate carbonation. Good use of hops.
