500ml bottle from Tesco - Completely underwhelmed by this. Hazy orange, thin white head. Nose has none of the characteristics of a decent hefeweizen, seemed more in tune with a cheap bitter. The hops over did any wheat, the taste lacked depth and was irritatingly bitter. no sweetness, banana or clove. Rubbish.

Tap at the White Swan, Solihull. Poured a clear dark brown with a thin off white head and some clingy lace. The aroma is yeast, light hop. The flavour is moderate bitter with a crisp, cool, refreshing, light grass hop, earthy mineral yeast palate. Medium bodied with average carbonation. Quite drinkable but barely got the chinook and citra.Earlier Rating: 2/23/2014 Total Score: 3.4Cask at the Wellington, Birmingham. Poured a clear dark brown with a reddish hue and a bubbly off white head. The aroma is light malt spicy hop. The flavour is medium bitter with a spicy pepper malt light fruit palate. Medium bodied with soft carbonation. More of the same from Marstons please. It’s great to see them embracing the craft beer scene.

Keg pint @ Montgomery’s Tower, Shrewsbury. Pours predictably dark with medium off white head. First time I had this it tasted of cleaning fluid. The second, about a month later, not much better. Tastes of nothing in particular. Light, watery, mirage-like roast notes. Could find nothing remotely drinkable in this. Left most of the pint.

Bottle from Tesco, Brighouse. Pale golden-amber with next to no head. Has a sweetened character with an underlying fruitiness. Slightly active in the palate with a small fizz, it’s also has a crispness.
