[On tap at the Mount Stewart Hotel, Port Patrick.] A hazy amber pour with a lasting white head; citrusy aroma; sharpish citrus taste, but rather thin and watery; then some orange peel to finish. Crisp and refreshing, but a rather basic craft-style beer.

Cask at the Alexander Graham Bell. Pours clear dark brown with a thin beige head. Aromas of light blackcurrant and toffee. Taste adds some roast. Decent and drinkable.

Can at home in Hackney - picked up from the local big Tesco. Pours clear gold with a creamy, white head. Light sweet flavour with some citric hops, lean pale biscuits, mild crispy hay. Light bodied with average carbonation. Fairly clean finish. Not bad, easygoing.

Cask ale at Barrel Vault, half pint shared with Finn. Wetherspoon Beer Festival, March 24. Nice in the glass with its rustic black body, fawn-coloured head, and scattered lacing. Lightly roasted grainy malt on the nose, mid-sweet. Prominent caramel flavours with a backdrop of coffee. Slightly roasted ending, mid-sweet. Nice. (London, 16.03.2024).
