Cask at the Royal Oak, Borough on 11th June 2025. Clear coppery amber with lasting, shallow off-white foam and full lacing. Citrus notes in aroma. Citrus zest, spicy maltiness and a good deal of grassiness in-mouth, with a malt-rounded herbal finish. Lightish body and a smooth mouthfeel.

Cask at the John Harvey Tavern, Lewes, as the Armada Ale, Dry Hopped. Poured a clear dark amber colour with a round bubbly white head. The aroma is malt and yeast. The flavour is moderate to light sweet and bitter, with a smooth, rich, yeasty, caramel, malt, herbal, light woody hop bitter palate. Medium bodied with soft carbonation.

Cask at Royal Oak. Orange amber colour with small white head. Aroma is quite fruity, blood orange mainly. Slightly boozy too, almost a bit orange liqueur like. Taste has the same strong orange taste, quite full on in the mouth, maybe a bit too much over the course of a whole pint. Quite slick, with a fruity end. Liked it, but probably would have preferred to just have a half.
gave a cheers!
