Gravity cask at the Blue Boar, Leicester. Mid-gold, a bit greenish. Hazy with a large loose white head. Lots of grapefruit and juicy mango in the aroma. The taste is a bit muddled, quite a nice malt base along with chalky citrus and tropical fruits. Finish is quite bitter without being jarring. Slightly messy but overall nice.

I've been told it's 'Locals Night' in the microbar I'm drinking this one in, everyone does seem to know eachother, but have not bothered the stranger yet who is drinking this mildly hazy hopped ale. A golden colour with a bit of a glow, it has a denser but smooth texture with towards tropical fruity notes.

Wigan Beer Festival 2026, Beer#20. A spicy in citrus brew, so plenty of tropical citric notes here, no heavy bitterness though in this respect. Hazy appearance.
