50cl bottle from the Grumpy Goat, Reading. A pale amber pour with a trace of white head and low carbonation; cereal aroma; quite fizzy in the mouth with a sweet grainy body and a grassy bitterness; and a crisp grassy finish. Not very exciting.

Bottle from Cotteridge Wines, Birmingham. Poured a clear straw colour with a frothy white head and a few bubbles. The aroma is buttery malt, citrus hop. The flavour is moderate to light bitter with a big woody hop bitter palate and slightly lingering bitter finish. Medium bodied with average carbonation. More than fine for a session and a decent ale for the ABV.

Bottle shared at chrisoโs Easter 2015 tasting - London. Pours clear, rich gold with a creamy, white head. Citrusy hops in the nose, some simple pale bread. Light sweet flavor with pithy citrus character, dry pale malts, rind, lemon. Light bodied with fine carbonation. Nicely balanced to finish with further pithy and rindy citrus. Good one.

Bottle from Cottridge wines. The bright red feather really stood out. Pale gold colour no head. Rather light aroma, and a dull taste, expected a touch more citrus hop.
