Cask in the Bankers Cat Leeds. Hazy yellow with a medium head. Aroma of dusty hop fruits, mango and peach. Flavour is soft fruits, nutty bitter, grain back with a long bitter finish.

There's nothing criminal about this smooth, hazy brew, which is a creamy-fruity cask brew of the tropical sort. Nice mouthfeel.

25/6/2026. Cask at a very hot Dove Street Inn Summer Beer Festival 2026. Pours fine. Aroma is fruity, vanilla, coffee, jammy. Mellow roasted bitterness. Smooth. Good.

I've driven by Laguna Beach to and from San Diego, but never stopped. Given it's a hazy west coast beer, this is a flexible 'classic' term depending on how far back you want to go as 'classic' with this style. The taste is classic though, crisp hoppy dominant, dryish, underlining tropical notes. Some strength.

Ordered this hazy dark dank golden brew when a departing beer tour coach party are all trying use the one toilet here - with much loathing for the last holding everyone else up! This holds up well for a strong cask, its smoothness a plus as the alcohol is impactful. Tropical notes do make their mark though, in both aroma and taste.

Tap Out 3 Times Beer#18 Visited three new Taps today,, a final afterthought here, which is a mildly hazy hoppy-first, tropical fruit second session strength brew. I think it's a bit more complex tasting to be a session but it's easy enough.

I ordered this beer after a greeting of "Hello Guys", despite being alone, the server said he's too used to saying that. A black in colour porter, which is a little different being gluten free, but very regular otherwise. There's nothing wrong with this traditionally brewed effort, it has a strong enough roasted aroma, and the same could be said about its taste in terms of style.

A thought whilst drinking this mildly hazed crisp keg pour - a quarter million UK badgers have been culled since 2013. It's more hoppy than fruity, and creamy in texture and taste, which is quite pleasant in its aftertaste. Tropical aroma.
