Can from Garsons Farm Shop, West End. Aroma has soft fruit and intrusionalys plus a drop of glue. Clear light gold. Thin bubbly white head. Initial sugar edged citrus sourness quickly followed by grass, boiled veg and cardboard. Light-medium bodied. Slick. Flat-fizzy carbonation. Long dry astringent finish. I used to like the Hairy Bikers (fact of the day: before it became a Big Smoke pub, their Weybridge pub's claim to fame was the Hairy Bikers filming there).

Can bought at Garsons Farm Shop, West End. Aroma has spicy rye and citrus. Opaque dark brown. Thick fluffy foamy beige head. Sour and citrus initial impression, followed by medium bitterness and rye spice. It is however the sourness that is prevalent. Light-medium bodied. Creamy mouthfeel. Flat carbonation. Long astringent finish. Nice enough but just seems muted... somehow lacks oomph.

Pale gold with a frothy white head and a slightly citrusy light malt aroma. More of the same in the flavour, with a herbal element to it. It's quaffable without offering a great deal beyond light biscuit malt and a touch of citrus hop

Can thanks to Katie & Dave. Appearance - orange to amber. Off white proportionate head. Nose - grapefruit, orange and apricot. Taste - more orange with citrus zest. Bready backbone. Palate - light bodied with balanced bitterness on the finish. Overall - yeah, nice!

Large foamy white head left a froth on a hazy pale lemon coloured still body. Lemon, herbal & chemical aroma. Medium bodied, sharp, dry & clean. Bitter, lemon, chalky & melon tastes with a tangy citrus finish. Decent beer but poor interpretation if the NEIPA style.

Tap at Craftyard, Wendover. Poured a clear golden colour with a lasting frothy white. The aroma is malt, light citrus fruits. The flavour is moderate to light bitter, with a crisp, malt, light woody hop bitter palate. Medium to light bodied with average carbonation.
