At Four Thieves. Musky citrus aroma. Opaque golden amber. Thin white frothy head. Initially pretty low key mango before some more citrus bitterness kicks in. Medium bodied. Slick. Sticky residue. Average carbonation. OK. Some fruitiness but overall a bland offering. Not that interested in finishing it.

Cask at the Falcon, Clapham Junction. Pours dark orange brown with off-white head. Toasted malts, some citrus, fruit, light to moderate sweetness. Soft carbonation. Medium bodied.
