Hand-pulled pint in The Pheasant, Wellington on 9th November 2022. Light golden pour, snow white head. Nice hop profile, Challenger? Not too much citrus like feel, so might be a UK traditional hop. Anyway it was a decent pint.

Handpull cask at the Marquis Wellington, Leicester. Light yellow with a hint of chartreuse and a full tightish white head. Citrus candy on the scent, a bit sour like Pixy Stix. Bittersweet taste with a cooked vegetable sour. Slightly harsh bitterness in the finish. Slight body, almost no carbonation. Works less well than many Everards beers.

Handpull cask at the Old Horse, Leicester. Light to mid-gold and clear with a scummy white head and spotty lacing. Nice aroma with the promised lemongrass, some waxy citrus rind, a surprising touch of leather. Sweet taste with the lightest of spicy notes. Bitter finish with tannic notes. Oily body with soft carbonation. One of Everards' better efforts.

Handpull cask at the Old Horse, Leicester. Caramel blonde and clear with a tight off-white head. Basic citrus aroma, decent but a but generic and muted. Bittersweet taste with a malt-led sweetness challenging some bittering hop. Full body for the ABV, soft carbonation. Meh.

Keg draught at the Marquis Wellington, Leicester. Light yellow and clear with lots of visible carbonation and a thin uneven white head. A bit of the gluey, corny and hay-ey notes prevalent in the smell of many mid-range lagers. Taste is a cut and a half above: sweet with lemon and light berry character, tempered by a gentle bittering hoppiness near the finish. Light body with heavy carbonation. Full of character and one of Everards' better beers.

Half-pint, on tap at Bakers Arms in Blaby. A clear golden body, filmy layer leaving clingy lacing behind. Mid-sweet fruity aromas, moments of herbal hops. Blended taste of leafy hops and subdued malty sweetness. Rounded ending with a fine bitter touch, mid-dry. Pretty good. (Blaby, Leicestershire 11.07.2022)

Draft at the Wild Boar, Warwick. Poured a clear golden colour with a lasting frothy white head and some clingy lace. The aroma is grainy malt, light citrus fruits. The flavour is moderate bitter, with a light, fresh, crisp, mineral, woody hop bitter palate and a lingering bitter finish. Medium bodied with average carbonation.

Keg at the Marquis Wellington, Leicester. Light to mid-gold with a fluffy white head. Clear. Light grassy hop, some clean grain aromas. Tastes bittersweet with a sharp citrus bitterness right near the finish. An almost medicinal bitterness lingers in the aftertaste. Decent enough.

Keg draught at the Old Horse, Leicester. Orange Amber and clear with a small off-white head. Light malty aroma, with some heavy grassy yeast. Sweet and somewhat glue taste with a resinous character in the finish. Light body with medium to heavy carbonation. Pretty dull even for the style but drinkable enough.
