Cask at CPK - London. Pours clear, glowing copper-gold with a thick, creamy off-white head. Lots of ripe, jammy citrus in the nose, some tropical fruits, melon, strawberry. Medium sweet flavour, a hint syrupy, with gooey orange, more melon and strawberry, some oily pine, slight grassy bitterness. Medium to full bodied with fine carboantion. Lightly warming in the finish, resinous, with more oily pine, ripe orangey, rich pale bread. A little bit too sticky-sweet, but not bad overall.

Light sweet flavor with some pine needles, lemon rind, harsh grassy bitterness. Light in body with fine carbonation. Grassy bitter finish, some grain husk, pale bread, light oily pine.

Tap at CBC Clapham. It pours lightly hazy gold with a medium, foamy white head. The nose is soft, lemon candy, sherbet, limeade, mustiness and piss. The taste is crisp, bitter, pithy lemon, pithy lime, grapefruit, piss and grainy action. Medium body and moderate carbonation. A bit pissy, but still ok.

(Cask at Craft Beer Co Islington, London, 25 Apr 2015) Hazy amber colour with frothy, off-white head. Fruity, spicy nose with notes of grass, dried fruit, citrus and herbs. Malty, herbal taste with dried fruit, citrus, herbs (rosemary, thyme, basil) and a balanced grassy bitterness in the finish. Medium body, with a slight sweetness. Interesting and spicy/herbal. Quite nice.
