Keg draught at the Queens Road Tap, Leicester light to mid-gold and maybe a little hazy with a firm white head. Malty aroma, some caramel, good bit of mango. Tastes bittersweet, very malt-led. The mango, having done its job, now fades. Bitter finish and aftertaste. A little watery in the body but plenty of carbonation does the trick. All in all pretty good mango pale.

Keg draught at the Queens Road Tap, Leicester. Mid-brown, translucent with a small film of beige head. Light malty aroma, some chocolate and sarsaparila notes. Bittersweet, more sarsapilla and basic malty character. Dry finish. Light body and heavy as hell carbonation. It's okay,nothing overly exciting.

Handpull cask at the Queens Road Tap, Leicester. Mid- to dark mahogany brown, a little translucent with a small film of beige/khaki head and a lot of spotty lacing. Malty aroma, notes of chocolate and red berries. Tastes sweet at first but there's a wonderful bitter hoppiness which follows, with a touch of astringency. More chocolate here, some black cherry. Light to medium body, soft carbonation. Incredibly good for the style.

Keg draught at the Queens Road Tap, Leicester. Middling gold and clear with a film of off-white head and good lacing. Aroma of pomelo, physialis, tomatillo. Very odd and intriguing. The taste is sweet and spicy, concentrating on orange zest and a touch of squash. Bitter and a bit malty and metallic later on. Light body with carbonation on the heavy side. Weird but a good weird.
