Cask at the Southampton Arms, London on 3rd March 2026. Hazy gold with whitish foam and full lacing. Lemon and grapefruit throughout drinking experience. Full body and an engaging mouthfeel.

Hazy yellow gold with a bubbly white head and a fruity aroma. Fizzy but smooth, tropical and citrus fruit to the juicy max, with some dry hop bitterness and a bittersweet finish.

Looks like I've just found Kirkstall Brewery's next new regular beer in their reportoir. Hoppy and blonde as stated, and very sessionable. Crisp and easy.

The oldest known pentacles had no association with the number five. Hazy golden coloured brew, which does have an association with sweet tropical fruit, notes of which and a hint of pine characterise this beer, which feels a little overwhelming for it at first, but gets more settled as you sip.

Bradford CAMRA Beer Festival 2026, Beer#25. Hazy yellow-gold in appearance, glowing, but looking a little weak. It's a little thin with its sweetened tropical fruit flavours, but some might find this makes it rather sessionable.

(Cask at Kitty's, 20260227) The beer poured amber and lightly hazy. Its head was medium sized and white. Aroma had toffee, ripe fruits and earth. Palate was medium bodied with low carbonation. Flavours were toffee, biscuits, ripe fruits, earth and bitterness. Aftertaste had earth, malts and bitterness. Tasty.

As real ale. Smell of resin, hops, some citrus and malt. Copper colour, tiny off-white head. Aroma of resin, malt, caramel, hops. Flat carbon. Medium bitter, lightly sweet. Delicious.
