500ml bottle, a gift from a friend: BB May 2026, drank at my parents house on 3rd January 2024. Brewery claims this is an IPA (front label clearly has it written, just above 'Gorgeously Hoppy Pale Ale'). Clean and clear golden body, deep white crown of bubbles. Hop bitter with a good malty backbone, no citrus fruits were harmed in making this beer.

14/11/2023. Cask pour shared by danlo, cheers Ed! Pours clear very dark brown with a small frothy off-white to beige head. Aroma is dark fruits, malt, ash, roasted malt, chocolate. Medium sweetness, moderate roasted bitterness, light fruity tartness. Moderate body, slightly oily and watery, average carbonation.

500ml bottle: BBE February 2024, a gift from a friend. Poured into a vase shaped UK pint glass at home on 23rd September 2023. Clear golden body, full on blanket of white foam. Harsh hop bitterness with a malty nose, can't detect any Citra hops or citrus flavours, it's resinous, woody and bitter, very bitter.

Skipton Beer Festival 2023. Golden in colour and mostly golden ale style in taste, with a lower end bitterness in the mix - certainly blurring the lines between these two styles.

Cask at Captain Cooks, Östersund. After last Hambleton dissapointment, this was a lovely surprise. Nice mahogany look, taste is spot on for a good bitter, nice apple giving way to crunchy grass/Biscuit end. Yummy, had 3 pints.

Cask at Captain Cooks, Östersund. This tastes real nice, plenty of hoppiness and good bitterness immediately. Only problem is the after feeling which is simply soap that drags and becomes really unpleasant. Shame.

Keg @ Fox And Goose, Hebden Bridge. Mildly hazed golden brew with a head. Crisp hoppy, dry tasting, is ok.
