Bottle ordered from the brewery. Pleasant fruity aroma with a hoppy edge. Not an attractive beer: hazy beige/peach. The thin white head recedes to a few mm across. Light-medium bitter. Sweet sugary stone fruit sountess. Off soapy taste in finish. Light-medium bodied. Fizzy carbonation. Long dry finish with a aftertaste. I'd heard that they were having issues with their bottling and this seems oxidised. Could argue it's unfair to rate it but at the end of the d it's what the brewery are selling direct.

Bottle ordered from the brewery. Sweet stone fruit aroma. More brown than amber. Slightly hazy. Thin bubbly white head. Medium bitter. Full.on hops with understand sweet stone fruit. Light bodied. Slick. Fizzy. Dry finish. This is a Vienna Lager? More like a fruity IPL. However still enjoyable stuff.

Third, keg at Pint Shop. Shared with Finn. Pale golden body, cloudy. Steady low white head leaving upper part lacing. Pineapple aromas with a floral scent. Fresh taste of pineapple and orange. Refreshing fruity ending with a welcome bitter finish. Pretty okay. (Birmingham 03.02.2020).
