Bottle from Home Bargains @ 4.2%. Clear gold with thin white head. Aroma is floral with peach and mandarin fruity notes, pine. Taste is soft sessionable fruitiness with mandarin and stone fruit notes, some light pine tingle, and nice moderate bitterness. Light to medium bodied, easy to drink. This is a really good hoppy gold. My favourite from Oakham so far and I only paid £1. Sometimes you get lucky!

Handpull cask at the Ale Wagon, Leicester. Light to mid-gold and clear with a spotty off-white head. Light hedgerow aroma, some grassy character. Taste comes alive with a candied fruity sweetness followed quickly by astringent bitterness. Wow. Light body, soft carbonation. British as hell and all the better for it.
