Cask-conditioned at the Seven Stars, Bristol 5/3/2014. Golden with a thin white head. Sweet, tangerine fruits, slightly sickly floral hops and a bitter finish. Not for me.

500ml bottle from the Crafty Pint in Darlington Market. Pours a clear light golden colour, fizzy, foamy white head in the glass that dissipates, and lime with ginger and coriander in the aroma. Malt with lime taste coming through, slight bitterness that lingers, and some residual sweetness and warming ginger & lemongrass notes. Refreshing, quite drinkable.
