Keg at the brewery tap. Pours cloudy orange-gold with a dense, lasting white cream head. Good snout, nice peach and tangerine rind. Light sweet flavour, some dry pale malts, rindy citrus, pale bread, lemon meringue. Light bodied with fine to average, massaging carbonation. Somewhat dry in the finish, pleasant bitter grass and rind, more tangerine, melon, peach. Just a mild flinty note. Overall, solid.

Keg at the brewery. Pours totally clear gold, effervescent, with a tight, lasting, creamy white head. So so, quite basic, lots of grainy and biscuity malt character, low bitterness, a little dough. Light bodied with average carbonation. Finishes with lots of crunchy, lightly sweet cereal. Drinkable.

Third, on tap at the brewery. Steady, creamy fawn-coloured head. Pitch black in the glass. Spotty lacing. Indeed, good looking. Inviting aromas of grainy chocolate. Well blended taste profile of earthy malts, almond and chocolate. Long-lived, warming finish. Velvety smooth in the mouth. Enjoying. (Hackney, London 28.09.2018).

Third, on tap at the brewery. Hazy orange coloured body, steady white head, fair lacing down the glass. Dusty hops on the nose, mid-sweet. Blended fruity taste of pineapple, mango and a backdrop of malty sweetness. Drying ending and smooth on the swallow. Fine depth. Good drinking. (Hackney, London 28.09.2018).

Keg at the brewery. Pours clear honey-gold, highly effervescent, with a big, foamy white topping. Nice stuff overall, with interesting hop character of semi-ripe citrus fruits, a little jammy orange, white grape, soft bitter pine, pale bread. Light to medium bodied with massaging carbonation. Fairly clean finish, more orange, some melon, crisp hay, rind. Drinks pretty good.

Keg at the brewery. Pours clear gold, effervescent, with a foamy white head. Good crispy lager, biscuits, nips of dry cereal and hay. Light bodied with fine, massaging carbonation. Finishes fairly dry, with some biscuity malts, mellow bitter straw, crispy cereal. Can't fault this really. Great lager.
