Can at home in Hackney - picked up at Clapton Craft. Pours clear copper with a big, creamy off-white head. Good stuff, nice resinous piney character, some ripening citrus, toasted malts, a little grassy bitterness. Light to medium bodied with fine, massaging carbonation. Resinous and lightly oily in the finish, with further toasted malt character, earth and grass. Drinks real nice.

Can at home in Hackney - picked up at Craft and Draft, Shoreditch. Pours mostly clear yellow-gold with a fluffy, pure white head. Pretty lean, has some dry pale malts, impressions of dried cranberries, a little flinty minerality, pine needles, lemon peel. Light bodied with average carbonation. Dry finish, more subtle bitter cranberry, citrus peel, crisp pale malts. Goes down pretty easy.

6/5/2019. Can from Three Hounds Bottle Shop, Beckenham. Pours clear pale yellow gold with a good sized fluffy white head. Aroma of coriander and lime, which worked nicely, along with hints of lemongrass and salty seaweed. Medium sweetness, light bitterness. Moderate body, slight oily and watery texture, average to soft carbonation. Some sweetness to finish, with a little saltiness. Initially really liked it but it did fade quite quick and felt it really didn't warrant being served up in a 500ml can.
