Aroma of pine and tropical fruits. It has a sweet and silky feel. Flavour is very fruity and sweet but delivers a thirst quenchingly dry finish.

Cask at the Euston Tap, London on 7th July 2012. Hazy gold with white fully-lacing foam. Hoppy and yeasty aroma. Bitter and grassy hops in-mouth before a very bitter finish, with grassy notes. Pleasant engaging texture.
