Half-pint, draught at Fallen Acorn Brewery. Shared with Finn. Opaque golden body, bubbles on the surface, spotty lacing. Mild apricot nose. Flavoured with apricot, ripe citrus, and soft malts beneath. Mid-sweet fruity ending, noticeable alcohol. Fair enough, a bit heavy to drink. (Gosport 19.10.2022).

Half-pint, draught at Fallen Acorn Brewery. Shared with Finn. Hazy orange coloured body under a beige head leaving crocheted lacing on the glass. Citrus and some dark fruits on the nose, promising. Quite well blended taste of grapefruit, apricot, and mild-malty sweetness. A piney touch to a satisfying bitter ending. Fine depth. Like it. (Gosport 19.10.2022).

Half-pint, cask at Southsea Village. Shared with Finn. Covering beige head, fair lacing, next-to-clear brown-reddish body. Moderate smell of earthy malts, mid-sweet. Nuts, earth, and a cocoa twist to the taste character. Mid-sweet dark malty tail. Rounded textured. Pretty alright. (Southsea 18.10.2022).

Keg at Brewdog Lothian Road. Pours black with a thin tan head. Aromas of strong dark chocolate and coffee. Taste is more of the same, and fruity with it. Nicely balanced finish. Easy drinking.
