9th July 2018; Shrewsbury Beer Exchange Group meeting in Chez Sophie. Cork and caged 75 cl bottle from the brewery and taken by me to our little tasting session. Hoped for more from this to be honest, found it rather timid and unadventurous (but at least they had a go at a 'different style' of beer). Misty golden/copper pour, big white, fluffy head. Some honey like aromas and sweetness, slight herbal twist, but lacked a true 'farmhouse/farmyard' feel or flavour.

500ml bottle from the brewery, drank on 24th June 2018. One of a few beers sank after England beat Panama 6-1 in the World Cup. Copper hue to the golden body, snow white crown. Hoppy nose and initial taste, piney, woody and slightly fruity, malts appear mid sip and add some light sweetness to balance out the loaded hop content. Decent.

500ml bottle from the brewery, drank at home on 18th June 2018. Poured slowly into a UK pint sleeve, clear light golden body, snow white crown on top. Not a lot happening aroma wise, some grain like notes maybe. Taste also hanging back in strong flavours, pleasant enough if a little subtle overall.

330ml can from the brewery, BBE May 2019. Poured into an old, tall (0.2 litre) 'Gaffel Kolsch' glass at home on 18th June 2018. Very pale blonde, clean and clear, large bubbles join to give a huge white head. No aroma, no taste, just like a real Kolsch! To be fair this is a refreshing, crisp Kolsch like beer and was never going to be a depth of flavour or heavy body. It's fine for the style.

500ml bottle, from the brewery: BBE Dec 2018. Poured into an Abbot Ale pint glass tankard at home on 14th June 2018. Looked good in the glass, snow white blanket on a clear and bright copper body. Good bitter hop feel to this beer, light fruitiness in both the nose and taste. I like a traditional English Bitter and this fits the bill nicely. I hope the other five beers I purchased when visiting the brewery shop are as good as this!

Cask half-pint, hand-pulled at the 44th Telford Beer & Drinks Festival at The Crown Inn, Oakengates on 5th May 2018. Pale golden body, thin white topping of foam. Light citrus notes in both the nose and taste, more lemon leanings rather than anything else, refreshing in the afternoon sun.
