Keg at Lyric, Soho. It pours cloudy orange - amber with a decent off-white head. The nose is soft, juicy, bready malt, orange, peach, earth and pine. The taste is crisp, bitter, orange sherbet, citrus rind, minerals, pine needles, toasty grass, earth and varnish with a dry finish. Medium body and moderate carbonation. Not a whole lot to it, but I found it rather drinkable. Decent.

Tap at the Birmingham Beer Bash, 2015. Poured a dark mahogany with a round light tan head. The aroma is yeast, grassy hop. The flavour is moderate bitter with a grassy hop, light spice, light medicinal palate. Medium bodied with average carbonation. More like a black IPA.

Mother Kelly’s. Keg. Opaque dark brown beer, good tan head. Palate is airy and has a fine minerally crispness. Smooth brown malts, mildly tangy. Trace of coffee and cream. A whisper of roast on the slightly dry finish. Comes together well enough.
