20/4/2024. Can at The Artichoke, Norwich bought at their bottle shop next door. Pours very slightly hazy golden orange with a large frothy white head. Aroma is citrus, lemon, touch herbal, grassy, malt, white grape, gooseberry. Medium sweetness, moderate bitterness and body. Average carbonation. Light husky fruit finish, with some developing bitterness. Well done.

Can bought at The Hive, Crowthorne. Aroma is rich and malty. Burnt caramel. Use. Dark fruit. Alcohol. Dark and glossy. Foamy microbubbled beige head. Boozy beer here. It's the first flavour sensation. Followed by chocolatey malts and caramel with a berry edge. Medium bodied. Slick to creamy. Average-fizzy carbonation. Long astringent finish. Nice enough but could dial down the booze.

Can ordered from Malt Miller, Swindon. Aroma has resing and citrus, with a sugary streak. Opaque dark orange. Frothy thin white head. Medium bitter. Resinous. Offset by sweet marmalade citrus. Gets more sugary. Medium bodied. Slick Flat-average carbonation. Long dry finish. Pleasent if not particularly bitter. Update: just spotted honey on the ingredients... which explains the sweetness!

Half-pint, cask, shared with Finn at Nags's Head. Close-to-clear amber body, clingy lacing from a covering pearl white head. Promising smell of bread-like malts and herbal hops. Mid-sweet malt-fruity taste profile, impacts of bread, ripe citrus, earth, and a piney touch towards a bittersweet tail. Medium bodied. Quite alright. (Reading 19.11.2021).

Delt med Rune. Gylden. Nesten klar. Filmskum. Sitrusaroma. Smaken tørket frukt. Tørr bitter avslutning.
