Keg at Euston Tap. It pours clear yellow with a sturdy white head. The aroma is real soft, fruit burst, bitter orange peel, blood orange, guava, star fruit, lychee, apricot jam and pine dust. The taste is smooth, easy going, mellow fruit action, juicy, pithy, zesty, apricot, guava, star fruit, pineapple, starburst, green mid-palate bitterness and drying pine with a lingering bitter - dry finish. Average carbonation in soft, fluffy carbonation. Felt quite subtle, restrained to begin with and then it opened up. Nice depth of flavour. Tasty.

(Cask at Sutton Arms, Finsbury, London, 28 May 2025) Golden amber colour with frothy, off-white head. Fruity, hoppy nose with notes of citrus, mandarin and tropical fruit. Fruity, hoppy taste with citrus, mandarin, grapefruit, pine needles, white bread and a generous citric/piney bitterness. Medium body, quite dry. Refreshing and highly drinkable, with a generous hop presence. Very nice.

Crazy soft and drinkable. Airy. Lightly dank, subtle citrus, mild rindy bitterness, pale biscuits. Insanely quaffable.

Tap at the brewery taproom bermondsey. A light hazed golden orange coloured pour with a sticky off white head. Aroma is nice nz vibes, burnt orange, green cereal, singed pine. Quite unusual.. Flavour is composed of semi sweet, rustic grains, barley, rounded orange rind, tangerine, mellow nz vibes,. Palate is semi sweet, rounded, good cask condition. Very nice.

Cask handpull at Kernel Spa Road. Haze deep gold colour lasting white head. OK pale ale on cask. It's fine somewhat earthy. Some nice sherbet character. Some bitterness on the finish. Malt is a little thin. But rest is good.
