Cask handpull at Fuggles Cafe Tonbridge. Clear gold colour lasting white head. Big tangerine aroma. Good condition in the mouth.some pale malt. But this is all about the hops and tangerine orange flavour. Its pretty good. Love the fruit. Super drinkable. Lovely.

Cask at The Golden Eagle, Marylebone. It pours clear golden with a small, fluffy white cap. The aroma is fresh, zingy, fruity, peach, passion fruit, guava, watermelon, touch green and piney. The taste is firmly dry, pleasingly bitter, pithy, zesty, tropical vibes, guava, watermelon, papaya and the like, waxy citrus peel, peppery spice, touch of toasty grains band grass with a drying, kinda floral finish. Light body and light carbonation. Summer crusher for sure.

Gravity cask at the 2025 Rutland CAMRA Festival, the County Museum, Oakham. Light golden and clear with a loose uneven film of white head. Grapefruit aroma, some stone fruit, light floral and grassy character. Full bittersweet taste with an intense amount of tropical fruit and lime juice. A tongue-coatibg bitterness for the long and slightly drier finish, not really bitter but more of a 'tang'. A lot of layers to this.

Gravity cask at the 2025 Rutland CAMRA Festival, the County Museum, Oakham. Golden and a little hazy with a thin white head and good lacing. Grapefruit, apricot, some gorgeous umami notes such as meat and sweat. Sweet taste, Stone fruit and pink grapefruit rind with an intensely bitter finish. Medium body, soft to no carbonation. An incredible APA. Hopefully this'll end up being more than a one-off, it's the best new Oakham Beer I've had in years and years.

Cask at Shrewsbury Arms, Stafford. Pours almost black with a medium sized foamy tan head and good lacing. Roasted malts to the fore in the aroma alongside honey and biscuits. There’s some sweetness in the mouth, but plenty of sharpness too. Texture is a little watery. Dark fruits are the most prominent flavour plus roasted malts and hints of liquorice. Some spice and currants come later. Still a little sweetness in the finish. This is decent.
