Keg at Ldn Brewers Market. It pours cloudy orangey brown with a small white head. The aroma is soft, sweet, orange marmalade, funky, sherbet, lemonade and tangerine. The taste is crisp, tart, refreshing, lactic, orange, tangerine, kumquat, touch of acidity, sour apple, bread and funk with a dry finish. Medium body and fine carbonation. Well rounded and quaffable. Good one.

Keg at the Wolf - Brum. With the fellas, post CWC III. Pours hazy, rich gold with a thin, foamy white cap. Tart berries in the aroma, some citric notes. Light sweet flavour, a little sweaty, salty, with very good acidic bite and notes of citrus fruits. Medium bodied and...with spritzy carbonation. Tart finish, with more citrus fruits - orange, tangerine - along with somewhat lingering acidic burn. Fun.

On keg at Teign Cellars, shared with Finn. Snow white head blanketing the glass. Pale golden body, near-clear. Distant aroma of spiced fruits. Pineapple, lemon and coriander mix to the taste buds. Drying end. Tasty enough (Newton Abbot 27.04.2017).

Great combination which suits the style so well. I closed my eyes and I was back in Belgium.
