Bottle from Booths, Media City. Amber with a thin head. Hopped with a light fruity character. It’s crisp without a finish to it which as it is dry and tasteless after the initial burst of flavour.

Cask at the Wellington, Birmingham. Poured a crystal clear medium amber with a short-lived bubbly white head. The aroma is sweet malt, strawberry jam, biscuit malt. The flavour is light bitter sweet with a smooth rich citrus fruit, light woody hop bitter palate. Medium bodied with soft carbonation. A really unusual ale with bags of fruit and hoppy goodness!

Half pint, cask, at Smithfield in Derby. White head covering a clear, dark golden coloured body. Oily hops on the nose. The taste profile is made up by caramel malts and a few citric hints. Nice bittersweet finish. Decent housebeer (22.02.2015).

Sample tray, one-third, tap at the brewpub. Spotty lacing from a remaining layer at the top of clear copper coloured body. Malt-fruity aroma, bit of caramel and leafy hops. Likewise, the taste is a mix of leafy hos and brown malts. A bittersweet ending is disturbed by yeasty hints. Drinkable (Derby 22.02.2015).
