On keg at Puzzles, Peterborough. Pours amber with a small cream coloured head. Nose is malt & caramel. Heavy malts dominate the taste, some dark fruits and candy sugar. Bitter finish, slight alcohol burn. Carbonation was fine. A pretty good ESB

Handpull cask at the Blue Moon, Cambridge, during the NVB Tap Takeover 3 August 2017. Amber/brown. Hazy. Nice little off-white head. Heady aroma of spruce, resin, tropical fruit, white grape. Some light floral notes. Sweet, fruity taste with strong suggestions of guava. Some notable bitterness in the finish. A brilliant cask DIPA.

Handpull cask at the Blue Moon, Cambridge, during the NVB Tap Takeover 3/8/17. Light orangey gold, slightly hazy, with no head. Lovely notes of grapefruit, resin, light tropical fruit. Taste is bitter. The hops never relinquish control, although the focus seems to change from pure citrus to more piney near the finish. Oily body. A beer that exceeded expectations for me. Wow.
