Keg at Craft Beer Co Covent Garden. Hazy pale orange. Thick foamy white head. Aroma has sugary citrus with chewy malts and a caramel edge. Flavourwise it has this sweet chewy citrus caramel streak with a sour edge. Underlying malts. Herbal finish. Light-medium bodied. Slick. Soft-fizzy carbonation. Long dry somewhat astringent finish. Hmmm... there's something about it that I don't like - a kink in the flavour.

Cask at the Southampton Arms, London on 16th January 2026. Hazy gold with shallow off-white foam affording partial lacing. Citrus aroma. Sweet and tangy blend of citrus and tropical fruits in-mouth. A good malt. Finish is of nutty malts and sweet and spicy fruits. Full body and a zingy mouthfeel.
