Cask at Merton Beer Festival Saturday 28th February 2015. Pale gold in colour, as Gazza describes this is indeed lime marmalade. Nicely bitter, very dry on the finish. Good bitter linger, lovely. This turned out to be a popular beer at the festival. A7 A4 T8 P4 OV15 3.8

On cask at Snooty Fox. Not sure it should taste of soap. Hoppy and some good malts but it is soapy. Good condition good hops and malt. Maybe a bit of line cleaner left.

The Fox. Tap takover. Cask. Almost opaque black beer, tidy cream colour head. Palate is smooth and semi dry. Mild fine carbonation. Smooth dry dark malts, touch of cream. Mild roasty bitterness and a whisper of coffee. Well buried dark fruits. Back end brings mild piney hops and a fair kick of bitterness. Little dark chocolate ushers in a sweeter creamy malt that starts to balance the bitterness. Finishes smooth. Coffee and hop bitterness linger on.

The Fox. Tap takover. Very hazy gold beer, small pale cream colour head. Palate is crisp and semi dry. Airy pale malts, not that sweet. Little hop skunk. Carbonated sting. English apples over a mild citrus. It’s okay but the weakest on show tonight.

The Fox. Tap takover. Very hazy deep gold beer, small pale cream colour head. Skunky hop nose. Palate is smooth and dry, mild fine carbonation. Airy pale malts, little dry cream. Big skunky garlic hops, Apollo, Zeus kinda thing. Light hop spice. Semi dry finish with an onion hop linger. Pretty drinkable.

The Fox. Tap takover. Keg. Hazy gold beer, small pale cream colour head. Palate is crisp and semi dry. Mild pale malts, a little dry.sweetness. Hops are juicy orange followed by mild tropical fruits. A nice kick of hop spice and then mild floralness. Tropical fruits return before a semi dry finish. Nice.

The Fox. Tap takover. Cask. Almost clear gold beer, small pale cream colour head. Light palate, semi dry and with mild fine carbonation. Hops start with mellow skunk and move on to pithy citrus and a little orange peel. Whisper of peachy tropical fruits. Ssmi dry finish. Mild hop spice linger. Decent.

The Fox. Tap takover. Keg. Hazy gold beer, small pale cream colour head. Smooth pale malts, little dry cream, nice sweetness. Hops bring tangy orange and fresh orange and lesser tropical fruits. Modest hop spice and a trace of lime before a semi dry finish. If I had been handed this at the Kernel and told it was a Kernel beer, I would have believed it. Very good stuff.
