Keg at 1260 Penwortham. Pours opaque orange with a thin white head. Aromas of passionfruit and guava, light coconut. Taste is more of the same. Chewy but sweet finish.

Draft at Sommar, Waterloo St, Birmingham. Poured a hazy yellow golden colour with a mostly lasting frothy white head. The aroma is grainy malt, light tropical citrus. The flavour is moderate bitter, light sweet, with a crisp, grainy, fresh, light citrus, dry, floral hop bitter palate. Medium bodied with average to soft carbonation. Tasty, but didn’t get the lashings of sweet tropical fruits as promised in the commercial description.

Keg @ Tap and Can. Pours a misty gold, expected a deeper amber colour. Not really a west coast IPA, by any stretch, very mild bitterness, lacking a deep malt character, but has a good hop bite to it, nice hop definition. Probably best I've had from Sommar but marked down as not being true to style. New brewer perhaps?
