Keg at the taproom, Bermondsey. Light to mid-gold, hazy with a foamy uneven white head. Brett very noticeable in the aroma but I also get sweet spice, citrus peel and hay. The taste is absolutely lovely. Sweet with citrus notes and punchy yeast, all brought into line by the dryness of the Brett. Short to medium finish. Heavy carbonation. A winner for me.

Can at home in Hackney - picked up at Clapton Craft. Pours clear honey-gold with a foamy, white head. So so overall, fairly dry, has some sun-kissed grain husks, dried citrus rind, grass, a bitter chlorophenol note. Light to medium bodied with average carbonation. Finishes with a mild ashy note, more husky pale grains, grass, orange rind. A little rough at the edges.

Cask at Pigs Ear 2018 - Hackney, London. Day 2. Pours clear gold with a frothy white head. Lovely beer in top condition. Lots of pithy, subtly zesty citrus fruits, grapefruit and lemon, soft pale bread. Light bodied with delicate carbonation. More vibrant citrus in thefinish, mellow rindy bitterness. Great stuff.

1/3 @Affinity taproom. Near black pour with small creamy head. Aroma features berry sweetness, riding on top of the roasted malts. Sweet, berry chocolate vibe. More sweet than bitter. Nice feel.

Beaverfest. Keg. Hazy gold beer, small pale cream colour head. Light, dry and has decent fine minerally carbonation. Light dry malts. Tangy passion fruit. Little orange. Light crisp finish. About what you would expect.
