Bottle shared in London - cheers to Scopey. Pours mostly clear gold with a frothy, billowing off-white head. Some leafy hops in the nose, a little plastic, orange peel. Light to medium sweet flavour with caramel, light oxidation, more leaves, damp wood. Medium bodied with lively carbonation. Sweet finish with more wood, toasted sugars, lig caramel, more oxidation, leaves. So so.

Bottle from The Beerhive. Clear golden body with a medium white head. Steady carbonation. Faint lacing. Aroma of grass, earthy hops and peanut shell. Flavour of green apple peel, underripe pear and pale malt with a subtle peppery finish. Thin to medium body with a light, oily texture. Soft fizz. Clean and simple - lovely.

Bottle from Appellation Wines. Appearance - amber with a decent head. Nose - red and orange fruit. A touch ofshortbread. Taste - light red fruit and very faint biscuit. Palate - light to medium bodied with a creamy texture and a long dry finish. Overall - I think this is an amber ale. Itβs tasty. A bitter would have more biscuit notes. But itβs very enjoyable.

On cask. Appearance - amber with a decent head. Nose - light biscuits and toffee. Some red fruit. Taste - more of the same. Quite tangy fruit. Palate - close to medium bodied with a tangy yet crunchy texture and a long dry finish. Overall - not excited by this but it is balanced.
