Very nice, big on the floral hops, some citrus peel, white grape, supportive pale malts, mellow bitterness. Quite drinkable.

Cask at White Hart, Chobham. Clear copper gold. Thin foamy white head. Aroma is sweet and fruity. Syrupy. Flavourwise this, like the aroma, is fruity and Syrupy with it. A bitter herbal and resinous edge is more evident into the finish. Underlying malts. Medium bodied. Slick. Soft carbonation. Long dry astringent finish. Good stuff. My merry is that previous iterations in this series were s tad underpowered so this is a nice surprise

Keg at Tilt, Bingohame, 27/02/2025.
Little did I know this would be the last time I'd visit Tilt ... RIP!
Golden to light amber with little in the way of a head.
Nose is orange zest, grass, pineapple, straw.
Taste comprises orange peel, melon, citric tinged straw.
Medium bodied, fine carbonation, drying close.
Passable pale ... came over a little flat.
