Cask at the 21st Egham Beer Festival. A hazy pale straw pour; with a tropical fruit aroma; and a soft tropical fruit taste, with pineapple to the fore; and a lingering fruity finish.

Bottle from Jacks (Westholme Stores) Goring on Thames, Oxon, consumed at home Sunday 17th May 2015 Very dark brown with a small filmy head. Hoppy on the aroma with a little roastiness. Really tasty like a black IPA, I am guessing it is a black IPA (though not sure what the style is meant to be) A7 A4 T7 P4 Ov14 3.6

Bottle at the Cotteridge Convention thanks to The_Osprey. It pours lightly hazy deep ruby with a small white head. The nose is soft, sweetish, sticky caramel, sugar, dried fruits and glazier cherry. The taste is bitter-sweet, earthy, roasty, light char, brown bread, toast, caramel, raisin, touch of alcohol and toasty brown sugar. Medium body and moderate carbonation. Decent.

24th Jan 2015. Cotteridge Wine meeting, shared bottle. Mixed bag of tricks this beer. Poured a slightly hazy terracotta colour with a scummy head. The nose a fruit basket of aromas with citrus fruits competing with dark, sweeter varieties of other fruits. The taste was also fruity but half-tart, half-sweet with a distinct maltiness showing through the alcoholic fruit cocktail. Nice, but overshadowed by ’heavy hitters’ it came to me in between.

Cask at the Finborough Arms, 17/01/15. Lightly hazed golden with a mdoerate off white covering that retains well. Nose is melon, citric pith, tangerine, straw. Taste comprises orange pith, melon, light bread dough, grassy. Medium bodied, moderate carbonation, semi drying close with light bitter strains. Drinkable but so so for style, lacks hops, trumped up golden blonde in essence.
