Cask handpull at County Hotel haze gold colour lasting white. Not as good as I was hoping as I normally love Oakham beers. Neither an apa nor a neipa. Somewhere between the two. Some tropical hop fruit. Some pineapple flavour. Light bitterness on the finish. It's ok. Decent condition and temperature. Just lacking a big of pazazz

Beer Number 3 at the Wetherspoon Spring Beer Festival 2025, leaving 25 of 30 still untried. Glowing hoppy beer, hint of fruit. Easy for strength and good looking.

Pint at the Guildford Arms. Pours clear pale yellow with a thin white head. Aromas of banana and lemon. Taste adds some tropical fruit. Light bitter finish. Nice.

Cask at Briar Rose, Birmingham. Pours a hazy golden yellow with a minimal almost white head and excellent lacing. The aroma has floral hops and citrus with a hint of pineapple. In the mouth it is sweet with a creamy texture. Floral hops and citrus prominent again with oats also featuring. Hints of tropical fruits and mango come later. Sweetness is still there in the finish. This is decent enough – but nowhere near as hazy as you would expect an NEIPA to be.

Hand pulled half pint at the Railway Tavern, Newport (Shropshire) on 3rd March 2025. Clean and clear light golden body, white crust on top. Fruity and herbal, soft feel to it's body, not a huge 'Wheat Beer' fan but this was fine.

500ml bottle from the lcbo. Clear copper pour, small off white head. Slightly skunky aroma, loads of fuggles and goldings upfront, with some citrus and pine resin. Very strong pithy bitterness with a good balance of biscuity malts. A nice British style ipa using West coast techniques with UK hops.

Cask handpull at Barrel Vaults JDW St Pancras. Clear pale gold colour lasting white head. A neutral aroma. Some ale yeast light English hop. Yep ale yeast flavour in the mouth. Not great condition not a lot of flavour. Actually this is all back end bitterness and hedgerow English hops. Get through the lack of aroma and the finish is decent. Yes the finish is solid.
