14/8/2026. Can from the Aerocraft Brewery & Taproom, Braintree. Train beer home take 1. Really good IPA, and better than most of the Ampersand beers we had at source on Saturday. Very nice bitterness. Enjoyed this.

(Cask at Cock Tavern, Hackney, London, 17 July 2026) Golden amber colour, slightly hazy, with foamy off-white head. Fruity, hoppy nose with citrus, grapefruit, orange peel and pine needles. Fruity, hoppy taste with notes of citrus, grapefruit, pine needles, white bread and a generous citric/piney bitterness. Medium body, with a certain sweetness. Rich and generous hop presence. Very nice.
