On tap @ the Haymarket. Pours golden with some haze. Nose is citrus mostly with not much of telltale wheat beer notes. The taste is more of the same - where is the banana, or toffee or nutmeg or whatever. Seems to be all grapefruit. The palate is light to medium body with a similar texture weight and a clean finish. Overall, a solid beer but they might have been better not to bother with the wheat.

Cask, handpump at The Palace, Kirkgate, Leeds, W.Yorks 18.03.12 in company of dad & Barry Conker brown with a reddy glint and creamy off white head. Fruity in the mouth with some tangy fruit skins adding a bit of bite to this. Cherry shows a little but overall its ok and whilst I didn’t mind it I wouldn’t necessarily rush out to hunt this beer out again. A6 A4 T7 P3 Ov13 3.3

Cask at The Magpie, Nicholson’s, London. Pours clear, bright gold with a fine, foamy white head. Quite a bit of toasted straw in the nose with hints of citrus. Light to medium sweet flavor with ripe citrus, dirt, straw. Medium bodied with fine carbonation. Somewhat sticky finish with a dirty, lightly abrasive bitterness, mild toasty dough, some citrus rind. The bitter edge softens as I get used to the beer. Not bad overall.

On tap @ the Haymarket. Pours golden with a decent head. The nose has gentle citrus zing but also a worrying apple zing. The taste is more of the same. The palate has a light to medium body and texture with a clean gentle finish. Overall, reasonable but slightly oxidised, methinks!
