Keg at Cloisters. It pours cloudy gold with a decent white head. The nose is sweet, fizzy Parma Violets!!!, sherbet, floral, apricot and candy. The taste is crisp, bitter, citrus peel, parma violets, sherbet, doughy, popping candy, straw, peach and apricot with a dry finish. Medium body and fine carbonation. With 100 packets of Parma Violets in this one singke keg I expecting much higher sweetness, but thankfully not! Crisp, fruity and delicious. Very nice indeed, without being sickly.

Cask handpull at 2014 GBBF. Very cloudy murky orange with a lasting loose white head. Aroma is fresh flowery citrus, american hop. Flavour is grainy doughy malts, semi crisp, fresh citrus clean hop profile. With a touch of tropical fruit. Palate is medium bodied, doughy and grainy. Nice carbonation. I like the beer, needs a bit more finings.

Cask at the Hanging Bat. It pours cloudy orange-amber with a nice off-white head. The nose is juicy tropical fruits, passion fruit, mango, sweet dough, candied peel and mild spice. The taste is bitter-sweet, orange, peppery grapefruit, toasted sugars, oily hops and pine with bitter, woody finish. Medium body and fine carbonation. Works surprisingly well on cask. Bitter, fruity and balanced. Another winner from Pilot.
