Bottle. Mr. Pickle, Sheffield. One of those, "Have I really not rated this?" beers. Very hazy gold. Messy white head. Pink grapefruit and nectarine. Clean and fresh. Taste is zingy bitter. Pithy gear. Bit of a pronounced yeasty thing. Finishes long, pithy bitter. Very drinkable, if a little muted on the hoppage.

Cask, half at Belgrave Music Hall & Reliance in Leeds. Stable beige head, amber body, solid lacing. Bready nose added by pale malts. Caramel, bread, and coffee beans to the flavours character joined by dried fruits, works fine together. Drinks well. Fair enough (06.07.2015).

Cask at Craft CG. It pours clear golden-amber with a small white head. The nose is. The nose is soft, sweet stone florals, mild peach/nectarine, grainy, bread and porridge. The taste is bitter, oily, resinous, peppery, pithy citrus, grapefruit spring onion and light floral action with a drying finish. Medium body and fine carbonation. Not as tasty as plenty of their other apas, but drinkable enough anyhow.

Cask at Craft CG. It pours clear amber with a decent, bubbly off-white head. The nose is earthy, bitter-sweet, toffee, stewed orange, peach and light bubblegum. The taste is bitter, earthy, toasty grain, brown bread, cereal, spicy hops, wood, some caramel and a touch of grapefruit rind with a dry finish. Medium body and soft carbonation. Fairly tame for summer wine. OK.

Craft Tottenham Court Road. Cask. Hazy amber beer, untidy pale cream colour head. Palate is light and dry with modest fine carbonation. Sweetish pale malts but then there is a little thin smoke, Tangy caramel. Light dry finish. A startlingly average beer from Summer Wine and that pump clip is a bit rubbish, looks nothing like Dave Willis!

330ml bottle. Barely clear, deep amber colour with huge, frothy, fairly lasting, moderately lacing, off-white head. Fruity hoppy aroma, zesty, bitter orange notes, a touch of raisin, caramel malty basis with a nuttily touch. Taste is dry hoppy, notes of bitter orange, orange zest, hints of lime and lemon, slightly sweet caramel malty background, a minimally soapy-zesty touch.
