Pours a clear coppery color, topped with a small white head. Mild herbal hops aroma, some notes of caramel present and slightly fruity. Mild taste, some sweetness in the start, followed by a sharp but moderate bitterness. Not bad, pretty drinkable, although not an IPA. Still nice.

Bottle at Cobbett’s, Dorking. It pours clear amber with a medium white head. The nose is sweet juicy citrus, sherbet and candy. The taste is crisp, firm bitterness, soapy, bitter citrus, wood, grass and some astringency with a dry, citrussy finish. Medium body and moderate carbonation. A touch soapy perhaps, but rather alright.
