10/11/2023. Can bought at The Joseph Conrad, Lowestoft. Shared with my Norwich mate Andy on train to Beccles Beer Festival. Pours slightly hazy amber bronze with a small frothy off-white head. Quite an old school, hoppy, piney, citrusy IPA. Liked it.

500ml bottle from Tesco, Aberystwyth. Poured a mostly clear golden colour with a short-lived, frothy white head and a few bubbles. The aroma is toffee caramel malt, light citrus fruits. The flavour is moderate to light sweet and bitter, with a smooth, toffee malt, buttery, light citrus, light hop bitter palate. Medium bodied with average to soft carbonation.

Can. Appearance - amber with a big fluffy white head. Nose - dried orange, cake, a hint of pine and a general muesli thing. Taste - cake, dried orange, caramel and toffee. Palate - medium bodied, creamy sweet middle and a mixture of sweet and dry on the finish. Overall - not quite on style, more of an old style IPA.

Cask poured in the Royal Oak in Saundersfoot. Clear copper-amber with a head. Crisp, smooth tasting mildly bready notes provide a full flavour, with a low bitter finish. Also tried in its bottle version, found in Pembroke Dock.

Can @ Twelve Tellers, Preston. Amber with a head and a noticeable strength to a mainly hoppy-soapy brew with some fruity notes.

Cask at Butlers Bell, Stafford. Pours a golden amber with medium sized off-white head. The aroma has fresh apples, citrus and floral hops. In the mouth there’s a slight sweetness to start but this is quickly swamped by bitterness of floral hops (though not overwhelming). It has a juicy texture with autumn fruits, biscuits and a hint of ginger. Finish is quite dry – it’s OK.

[Cask at the Hope Tap (JDW), Reading.] A golden amber pour with a creamy head; berry fruit aroma; tart bilberry taste, then some sour mash; and a disturbing vegetal bitterness to finish. Not too bad!
