Cask at the Southampton Arms, London on 8th May 2026. Clear golden amber with shadow off-white foam affording a full lacing. Light fruits and candies in aroma. Pithy tangerine and grapefruit citrus liquid pass and finish. A little less flavour intensity than expected for Fell and a 4.1%ABV. Would be ok for a 30C July afternoon. Smooth mouthfeel and a light body.

Cask at the Southampton Arms, London on 8th April 2026. Coppery amber with a shallow off-white foam and full lacing. Pungent and earthy aroma. Rich and intense citrus peel in-mouth and a long finish of citrus peel and nutty malts. Full body and a smooth mouthfeel. Exquisite.

I did come across some sheep on the cliffs of the Ayrshire coast last week. Dark clear golden with a small glow. Has a deeper neutral hop-malt taste, verging on watery, with quite a sweet aroma. The cask texture is good though, slipping down the palate well enough.
