Can at home in Hackney - picked up at Clapton Craft. Pours clear yellow-gold with a thin, foamy white head. Really tasty overall, though it has only mild apple and cinnamon notes (not really any vanilla). Mellow lemony acidity. Light bodied with spritzy carbonation. Clan finish, pretty dry, more light lemon. Drinks pretty good.

Keg at White Horse Inn, Edwardstone. The lime and coriander mix well in the aroma. Light gold. Bubbly white head. Medium bitter with citrus sourness and unsurprisingly a spiciness to it. Light bodied. Slick. Average carbonation. Long dry spicy finish.

Can at home in Hackney - picked up at Pigs Ear 2018. Pours deep brown with a fluffy, tan head. Tasty stuff, not overly sweet, some ripening raspberries, soft roast, dry chocolate. Medium to full bodied with velvety texture and lively, massaging carbonation. Lightly warming finish, nips of dark chocolate, dried raspberry and cherry. Enjoyable stuff. Also, very happy to see an impy stout in a small can - this should be an option more often!
