Bottle from Barrica Wines, Botany Bay, Chorley. Pours muddy-puddle opaque orange yellow brown, no real head. I mean, I expected that with the name and style, but still, it's an ugly fucker. Green tomato plant stalks and fresh orange peel on the nose. Taste is sweet orange, tropical fruit, green plant stalks. Too fizzy. Not exactly on-trend for me. And even so, why bother?

Keg @ Brink, Manchester. Dark-amber with a small head, and not overly showing its strength. This does subdue its hops and fruitiness in terms of taste. Has a fruity-toffee nose.

Light brown colour with quick fading head. Aroma and flavour have resinous hop and a lot of bittersweet syrupy. Apricot jam.
