On keg at Brewdog, Bristol. Pours very dark brown with a beige head. Aroma is peppermint cream, After Eights etc. The taste is dominated by peppermint essence which overpowers the roasted malts, dark choc. Medium bodied, average carb. Bitter peppermint finish. Interesting, won’t be loved by everyone

Floor 42, share a bottle or two! Thanks to Dan for the can! Your da man! Hazy gold beer, small pale cream colour head. Palate is smooth and has modest fine carbonation. Smooth creamy malts. Good pine. A touch of vodka like alcohol in the mid. Ripe tropical fruits. Mild citrus peel. A little hop spice on the finish. Goes down fine.

Keg at BD Sheps Boost, 20/10/17. Clear golden blonde with a handsome white cap. Nose is melon, tangerine, passionfruit, citric zest, grass, light floral whispers. Taste comprises light pine, tangerine, pineapple, melon, toasted grains, light herb. Medium bodied, fine carbonation, semi drying close splashed with leafy hop bitterness. More akin to an APA in terms of strength and flavor but a decent hoppy session machine none the less.
