Cask gravity at FILO, Hastings, Saturday 3rd May 2014 Mid amber but cloudy with slim white head, the description suggests Lychees and Passion fruit, I don’t quite get that but it is tangy, fruity. Dry and with a robust quite rough bitterness. Quite a rustic but decent bitter. A6 A3 T7 P3 Ov13 3.2

Sun Inn autumn beer festival, Kelvedon. Light haze on this gold beer. Small bubbly white head. Palate is smooth with good fine carbonation. Smooth neutral malt. Nice mellow citric hops, light orange with touches of pith and peel. Whisper of lemon. Light crispy finish. Mellow bitter linger. Nice condition and a nice little beer.

Golden with a creamy head but a weak body that does affect the texture, although the flavour and aroma remains full tropical fruit.
