Bottle from Saucy Pears. Appearance - golden with a head that quickly disappears. Nose - lemon pith and metallic notes. Taste - more of the same really. More citrus and still that metallic tang which I’d sometimes expect from a lager but not from an ale. Palate - light bodied with a creamy yet tangy texture and a long dry finish. Overall - not keen on the metallic note but it’s at least fairly balanced between malt and hops.

Bottle picked up at Saucy Pears, Worcester, Saturday 11th April 2015 consumed the same day at mum’s, Worcester. Pours mid gold with a slim white head atop. Dusty hops and a rather lacklustre beer in the mouth, dusty hops and a slightly tired dare I say boring flavour, the hops seem to have been used sparingly. Struggles to hit the giddy heights of merely being ok. A5 A3 T5 P3 Ov10 2.6

Bottle at the School’s Out Tasting. Pours dark amber, with the merest white head. Aromas of light chocolate, light red fruit, Worcester tang. Taste is soapy - maybe there’s only one bottling line in Worcestershire? They’ve all been pretty soapy so far. Thin for the strength.
