Hand-pulled half-pint on Saturday 18th November 2023, Hops in Crewe before the Latvian Day Tasting with Martin in Ebenezers. Pale golden body, white crown. Nelson Sauvin Hops doing their thing, but all a bit subtle and boring for my palate.

On cask at Port Street Beer House, pours a clear dull yellow with a small white head. Aroma is gentle, bringing out gentle citrusy hop tanginess and soft bready malt. Flavour is fairly bitter, with lots of bitter citrus zest and a big bready malt backbone. Hard to detect the Nelson character specifically but it's a decent beer.

Cask @ Wigan Central, Wigan. Very slightly hazy golden with a red. Hoppy-fruity but more of the former in taste, fruitier in nose.

Cask at Hops, Crewe. Pours a cloudy golden brown with a small white head. The aroma has nuts and hintsd of yeast. In the mouth it starts of sweet and juicy (if a little watery), but quickly becomes quite bitter with traditional and floral hops plus pine and ttraces of nuts and marmalade. Bitterness lasts into the slightly dry finish. This is nice enough, but pales in comparison with my previous beer (Macaroni Ted).

Cask @ Gas Lamp, Manchester. Light coloured and extremely light hazy golden ale with a creamy head. Crisp hoppy fruity, with the latter sweet tropical fruit in design, albeit a mild example of making proceedings a tad watery. Had the first pull of this one.
