On tap at the Old Fountain. Very light haze on this gold beer, tidy white head. Smooth palate, semi dry. Hops are nice mix of tropical fruits, pine and mildly bitter citrus. A little creamy pale malt underneath. Finishes semi dry. Decent pale ale, full of flavour but not aggressive.

Cask at CPK, London. Pours clear yellow with a frothy, white head. Rich citrus nose, some grass, sap, straw. Lightly sweet flavor with a famtastic bitterness. Lemon rind, dry straw, slight urine. Light to medium bodied with fine carbonation. Near perfect balance. Dry finish with some slightly abrasive hops, bit of grass, crispy malts, straw, touches of sugar, long-lasting bitterness. Superb beer. Even more impressive given the low ABV.

Cask@The Craft, London. Amber looks with a small white head. Promising nose of citrus and grassy hop. Some sweetness in tandem with excellent piney hoppage in the flavour. Fresh, clean and very downable. Top stuff. By the way if you haven’t seen the documentary ’Man on Wire’, seek it out and toast that man’s balls with a glass of this.
