Hand-pulled pint in the BOD, Newport, Shropshire on 12th July 2025. Light golden body, white crust, looked good sat on the rear terrace in the afternoon sunshine. Not a great deal going on to be honest, orchard fruits in the background, some mild malt action but all a bit tame and subtle, no depth from this 5.5% ABV Blond.

Keg draught at the Marquis Wellington, Leicester. Deep gold and clear with a tiny little white head. Light orange peel aroma, a little malt. Sweet taste, very little to it but a balanced beer. Light body with heavy carbonation. Pointless but by no means terrible.
