Cask at the Cambridge Blue on 20th June 2018. Amber with disappearing foam and scant lacing. Malty, nutty aroma. Citrus hoppiness and nutty malt in-mouth and through the finish. Zingy mouthfeel and medium body. Very pleasant.

Keg at the Blue Moon, Cambridge. Light gold with a tiny bit of head and little visible carbonation. Resin, earth, gardenia and a bit of plastic in the aroma. Fresh bittersweet taste. More hop bitterness in the finish. Decent and certainly tasty but not outstanding... better APAs to be had.

Keg at the three johns during the tap takeover. Clear mid golden / orange coloured pour with a lasting thin off white head. Aroma is semi sweet, nitty malts, light resinous hop, grassy hop with a little strawberry. Flavour is composed of tangy grassy hop with a little pine In the background. Malt base in brown bread, crisp Grains. Was expecting a bit note southern hemisphere tropical hop character. Palate is crisp with highish carbonation and a drying finish. Lingering grassy hop. Little veg. Clean fermentation.
