Can from the brewery. Pours clear yellow gold with a thick white head. Aromas of tropical fruit and little else. Taste is light sweet fruit, mango and pineapple. I suspect extracts rather than real fruit here. Thin finish.

Cask at the Crown Rivers, Heathrow T5. It pours clear oily amber with a medium fluffy white head. The aroma is earthy, woody, bitter - sweet, caramel, resin and brown bread. The taste is firmly dry, spicy, woody, earthy, bitter - sweet character, resin, some tannin and caramel with a bone dry finish. Average+ body and well supported cask carbonation. Robust and good for the style.

Wetherspoon Spring Beer Festival 2026, Beer#23. Very mildly hazed dark amber brew, no head on this pour. Hoppy, but quite malty too and it's this part of this lower-end bitterness bitter that lingers in its aftertaste.

[Cask at the Hope Tap (JDW), Reading.] An amber pour with a thin white head; malty aroma; malty taste lifted by a little lemon; and a syrupy finish. Pleasant.

Cask handpull at Victoria Wetherspoons. Clear pale brown colour lasting beige head. Some malt flavour some dusty hop finish. Its a fairly bland bitter. OK decent enough some character. But its a bitter.
