Can at home in Hackney - picked up from All Good Beer HD. Pours totally clear honeyed gold with a big, frothy, off-white head. Light-medium sweet flavour with lots of drying piney bitterness, mellow flinty minerality, citrus rind, sun-kissed pale malts. Medium bodied with active, massaging carbonation. Lightly resinous finish, further piney hops, dried citrus, clean pale malts. Very nice hoppy beer.

Can thanks to allmyvinyl. Appearance - deep amber with shades of red. Tan head. Nose - toffee and light prunes. Taste - prunes and stewed apple. Toffee. Palate - creamy and medium to full bodied. Sweetish finish with a tangy thing that somewhat clears things. Overall - good, if a little light for a quadrupel.
