Handpull cask at the Crafty One, Ilkeston. Light yellow and clear with a very small, very loose white head. Not a lot of hop in the aroma, it's got tge smell of highly oxygenated water. Maybe the lightest hint of apricot. As poor as the aroma is, it's got a lovely taste: bitter without being mouth-puckering, leading to a drying yet fruity finish. Ok.

Half-pint, cask at Fernandes Brewery Tap. Thanks to ManVsBeer for sharing. Clear straw coloured body, filmy layer, clingy lacing. Quite inviting smell of grain and leafy hops. Mixed taste of bread-like malts and citrus. Drying ending, discreet bitter support. Satisfying. (Wakefield 04.07.2019)

Half-pint, cask at Fernandes Brewery Tap. Remaining white head, bright golden body, fair lacing. Promising aroma of citrus and leafy hops. Lemony hops to the taste profile followed by a bittersweet tail. Medium bodied. Pretty good. (Wakefield 04.07.2019).
