Beer Number 4 at the Wigan Beer Festival 2025. Glowing beer although slightly drab in its fruitiness. Remains drinkable though.

Oldham Beer Festival 2024. Golden in colour. Hopped yeast dominates, some bubble-gum sweetness, very Belgian in style. Quite strong so not a fast sipper.

Cask @ The Baum, Rochdale. Clear golden with a creamy head. Slightly on the weak side in the palate, if you want to make this hoppy brew a session ale I doubt that would matter much. Light bitter aftertaste.

Cask @ Flying Horse Hotel, Rochdale. Regular fairly strong tasting stout, other than this there's nothing too stated within its style.
