Cask at the 24th Egham Beer Festival. A deep peaty brown pour with a thin cream head; aroma of piney resinous hops; a surprisingly light and crisp Pacific hop taste, well supported by a caramel malt body; then a rather thin finish with lingering aromatic hops.

Cask at the 24th Egham Beer Festival. A cloudy straw pour with a loose white head; sweetish aroma with a touch of citrus, otherwise rather muddled; grainy body with some lime juice and lemongrass; then a touch of sourness; before a clean finish with lingering lemongrass. Pleasant enough, but lacking the complexity expected from the tasting notes.
