Hand-pulled half-pint in The Boot Micropub, Wellington Shropshire on 30th July 2022. Not too sure I know this hop variety, but it has a grapefruit like aroma and taste, like so many seem to have from New Zealand. The beer has a misty/opaque dull old gold body and a thin white head. All a bit one dimensional for me.

On tap at Suds & Soda, Derby. Pours a murky raspberry red with minimal white head and good lacing. The aroma is sweet with raspberries and apples. In the mouth it as slightly sour, but also with a little sweetness. Flavour is mainly raspberries with some malt biscuits and hints of apples. Sweetness dominates the finish. This is OK but a long way removed from the sort of beer I would normally drink.

Can from Appellation Wines, thanks to AshtonMcCobb. Pours light hazy yellow gold with a thin white head. Aromas of rhubarb and custard sweets as promised. Strong vanilla and sharp rhubarb. Taste is sweet vanilla up front, light rhubarb on the end. Light sour finish. Enjoyed this.

Can from Appellation Wines. Appearance - golden with a light haze and a proportionate, snow white head. Nose - brown bread, stewed fruit, light toastiness. Taste - creamy representation of custard this time, then the stewed rhubarb which is nipped off by the tartness. Palate - light bodied, tart finish. Overall - ok.
