Half-pint on tap at Euston Tap. Shared with Finn. Hazy golden body, filmy layer that laced quite well. Promising fruity aromas of peaches and citrus. Grapefruit up front to the taste profile, joined by peaches, and a decent vibe of resinous bitterness to the finish. Medium bodied. Nice. (London 22.11.2021).

[33cl can from Beer52.] An opaque amber pour with a tight white head; lemony aroma; strong citrus taste with grapefruit to start then lemon and then clementine; and a clean crisp finish. A pleasantly fruity APA.

Can at home in Hackney - picked up from Grapes & Hops. Pours clear pale yellow with a frothy, pure white head. Lightly sweet with clean, dry biscuity malts, a little bitter straw, bread crust, nips of grass. Light bodied with average carbonation. Fairly dry in the finish, which is nice, with more biscuity malts, light bitter grass and straw. Nice overall.

Keg at Brewdog in Reading. One-third pint shared with Finn. Almost black in the glass, lacing rings down the glass. Moderate smell of cinnamon of slightly roasted malts. Spiced mid-sweet malty flavours, cinnamon up front, a note of cocoa. Spiced malty end as well, mid-sweet. Pretty alright in smaller amounts like this little glass. (19.11.2021).
