Keg at Craft Beer Co, Clerkwnwell, 13/04/13. Hazed dark amber with a thinnish beige head that retains well as a film and edgeing. Nose is dark malt, hops, fruits, sugars, light soapy notes. Taste comprises brown sugars, hops, tangy tropical fruit, light pine. Medium bodied, fine carbonation, dry finish with hop bitterness. Decent.

Aroma: Lychee, wood and caramel.

Appearance: Hazy copper body with a thin white head that quickly fades. Light carbonation. Nice lacing.

Taste: Sweet caramel, toffee popcorn and a hint of cherry flavoured bubblegum. Lychee and ginger notes are noticeable as the beer warms. Soft rye spice on the finish.

Palate: Medium body with an oily mouthfeel. Light carbonation fizz on the tongue.

Overall: A sweet, interesting IPA. If the bitterness was heightened a little more, I’d have absolutely loved it.

Craft Clerkenwell. Keg. Light haze on this gold beer, little white head. Crisp palate, sharp carbonation. Mild creamy malt, dry, slightly thin. Nice sweet orange start, turning to bitter citrus. Touch of floral character and then tangerine. Smooth finish. All right!

Tasting at ChrisO’s. Opaque dark brown beer, tidy pale tan head. Light crisp palate. Crispy minerals. Bittersweet dark malt. The dark malt is quite mild but has a cherry sweetness. Finishes dry with a touch of hop. Not bad.

Cask at the Reading Beer Festival 2012. Pours dark gold with a moderate, foamy head. Light berries in the nose, some lemon and orange. Light to medium sweet flavor, juicy with lightly ripened citrus, definitely some orange, lightly toasted grass, some straw. Light bodied with fine carbonation. Mild sticky finish, some toasty hay, citrus rind and peppery hops, light corn. Nice.
