25/05/2025: 500ml bottle. Clear golden, white head. Aroma of very biscuity malts, mild citrus. Taste has those American C hops coming through surprisingly alright for the style, definite citrus notes and a bit of pine, still very English in character though with the strong biscuity malt base being the main focus, moderate bitter finish. Light-medium body, spritzy carbonation. A better effort than most trad brewers with regards to the hop usage.
04/09/2025: Also tried this on Cask at Whittle Taps, Cheltenham. Really not much like the bottle counterpart. Dominated by floral hop notes and not much else, even the malts not showing well here. Glad I tried the bottle previously otherwise I'd consider this mediocre. Probably a 6/10 rating.

Handpull cask at the Queens Road Tap, Leicester.dark gold, muddy hazy with a small film of white head and uneven lacing. Light tropical fruit, grassy character, Horlicks, coconut. Malt-heavy on the tongue with sour passionfruit getting through. Balanced finish. Medium body with very soft carbonation. It ain't bad but unlikely to excite.

Cask at Tap & Spile, Birmingham. Clear gold with small white head which lasts well. This one turned out to be a fairly typical floral and citrus noted gold, reasonable hoppiness, slightly above average, quite nice.

Hand-pulled half-pint at a beer festival in the Anvil (Shifnal, Shropshire) on 11th October 2024. Dark brown, slight ruby red hue, smooth beige head. Subtle raspberry presence from the off, malty overall with the usual coffee and chocolate hints within.
