28/8/2021. Cask at the 2021 East Anglian Beer Festival, Bury St Edmunds. Pours cloudy dark orange amber with a very small bubbly off-white head. Aroma is earthy, fruity, hedgerow, yeast, malt, touch of pine. Moderate sweetness, medium bitterness. Medium body, oily texture, soft carbonation. Bitter, and slightly cheesy finish. Not bad.

500ml bottle from Rise, Bridport. Misty glowing golden orange, good white foamy white head. Tropical hop fruit on the nose. Entertaining juicy tropical IPA character. Some pineapple and mango, which I'm assuming is from the hops, doesn't really elaborate on the label. Decent Dorset IPA

500ml bottle from, I think, Rise Bakery, Bridport. Polishing off the remnants from our Dorset break. Decent saison, esp for 4%. Gently spiced creamy sweetness. Crisp bitter finish. Nice.

500ml bottle from Rise bakery, Bridport. Pours a deep golden amber, lightly misty, frothy white head. Expected a pinier fruitier affair, but this feels a little empty, with a moderate malty profile and robust bitterness. OK light sipper.
