Craft Islington. Cask. Pretty much a clear gold beer, small bubbly pale cream colour head. Palate is smooth and has modest fine carbonation. Light malts, mildly sweet. Slight berry vibe here, red and black berries, but they are underneath mild floral bitterness and a little floral citrus. Light smooth finish leaves a long bitter linger. Some citric peep bitterness too boot. Interesting and drinkable. But like most Hopcraft beers, would be better on keg!

Craft Islington. Cask. Clear gold beer, small bubbly white head. Palate is light and smooth, reasonable fine carbonation. Very light malts are mild to medium sweet. Light floral citrus, very light. Smooth pine and a trace of apple leads to a very light finish. It doesn't seem much but has that intanigble drinkability. Long bitter linger.

Craft Islington. Cask. Light haze on this gold beer, small bubbly pale cream colour head. Palate is smooth and has modest fine carbonation. Thin malts provide modest sweetness. Big bitter floral hop kick. Modest orange and tangerine underneath. Finishes tangy and semi dry and leaves a long bitter linger. Sharp edged.

Cask. Kelham Island Tavern, Sheffield. Hazed, pale gold. Thick suds of off white head. Nose has lots of flora and herb leaf. Lots of biscuity malts. It’s a little curious, to be honest. Taste follows suit with floral, herbal bitterness. Some sweetness. Light to medium body. Soft carbonation. More herb to finish. Tasty gear, definitely.

Gravity cask at the 2018 Leicester Beer Festival. Golden and clear with with a thin and very loose white head. Pulpy white grapefruit aroma with heavy floral notes. Bitter taste with sticky hop oils on the tongue. Long finish with floral honey on the aftertaste, and a touch of lemon curd. A good hoppy golden.
