On tap at Black Bush, Chester (not listed in Brewver yet). Pours golden yellow with a small scummy almost white head, good lacing and fairly high carbonation. The aroma has malts, pine, quite a bit of spice and just a hint of honey. In the mouth it is quite sharp but with some underlying sweetness. Flavour is malts, corn, hints of spice and resin. Sweetness gradually increases, and zesty hints of berry fruits can be detected leading to a quite dry finish. This is decent.

Tap at Flanagans, Wien. Golden color with medium white head. Aroma of citrus hops, zest, herbal notes, light malt. Taste starts malty, followed by nice citrus hoppy bitterness, together with herbal notes, light pines. Good.

Keg draught at Norton’s of Digbeth. Light gold,clear with a big white head. Grainy aroma with light citrus hops. Sweet taste with a metallic and lightly hoppy kickback. Hops seem to congregate in the finish with a metallic hoppy bitterness in the aftertaste. Pretty dull but certainly drinkable.
