MCR July Specials Beer#20. My only Manchester drinking day this month so a sweep of the one-offs. Blonde coloured cask pull, the only one of a palate of four. Easy textured and quite smooth, suffering a tad from a weak body and taste, but hoppy enough to please.

Can picked up at West Walls. It pours cloudy orange with medium fluffy white head. The aroma is soft, sweet, sticky, pine, resin, dank, floury bread, grass and some tangy citrus. The taste is firmly, dry, sappy, sticky, green, grassy, dank, spicy, herbal, pithy, grapefruit, earl grey tea, waxy citrus, lemon peel, resin, bread and hint of alcohol with a drying, chewy finish. Average body and moderate, fluffy carbonation. Nice hearty dank west coaster.

Keg at West Walls. It pours crystal clear yellow with a thick, fluffy white head. The aroma is super fresh, green, weedy, dank, pine, earl grey tea, sole bready malt, candied citrus and zingy rind. The taste so crispy, dry, snappy, very clean malt base, pleasing bitterness, piney, earl grey tea, touch of weed, rawness, dank, minerality, grass, dry wood and light alcohol presence. Average body and moderate, fluffy carbonation. As with their other offerings at the tap, this is very impressive. Super fresh and punchy.

Keg at their second anniversary party. It pours turbid, super cloudy bright yellow - gold with a thick, fluffy white head. The aroma is crazy fresh, green, weedy, spicy, herbal, mango, pineapple, heavy saturation, sticky and mango salsa. The taste is super bitter, green, weedy, dank, bong rips, punchy alcohol, resin, pithy, zesty, raw, mango, peach, slightly chalky, spicy, warming booze, pink grapefruit, blood orange and pineapple chunks with a drying, slightly chalky finish. Fulsome body and fairly high, fluffy carbonation. Big, fresh, fruity and green. A ludicrous beer. Maybe a touch green and fresh, but that will calm down. Silly.

Keg at the brewery. It pours turbid cloudy yellow - gold with a white cap. The aroma is super green, weedy, dank, bond rip, leafy, spicy, herbal, tropical fruits, citrus peel, apricot jam and dry wood. The taste is dry, green, weedy, dank, floury bread, pithy, zesty, mango salsa, spicy, grapefruit rind, orange peel, pomelo, and dry wood with a firm, bone dry finale. Average body and moderate, fluffy carbonation. Pretty miraculous stuff. Super fresh. Very impressed.

Keg at the source. It pours light hazy golden - yellow with a thick, fluffy white head. The aroma is fresh, piney, bitter - sweet, sappy, resin, earl grey tea, twist of citrus, stone fruits and bread. The taste is firmly dry, bitter, grassy, piney, woody, floral, quite fragrant, hearty bready malt, biscuit, touch green and light alcohol presence. Medium body and moderate+ , foamy carbonation. Perhaps a touch heavy for the abv, but a tasty beer nonetheless.
