On cask at the Haymarket. Appearance - golden with a proportionate head. Slight haze. Nose - tropical fruit such as banana and papaya. Luscious and some citrus lurking. Taste - a tug of war between citrus and tropical fruit. The banana and mango take early advantage but bitter orange has the final word. Palate - close to medium bodied with a creamy texture and a long dry finish. Overall - lovely and interesting.

Cask at the haymarket. Pours hazy pale gold, thin white head. Aromas of lemon, grapefruit. Taste is bitter, bit unbalanced with the bitterness. Creamy texture, green bitter finish.

Cask-conditioned at the Windmill, Portishead, Somerset 24/12/2014. Deep gold in colour, with a tight, but small, white head. A touch of citrus hop, some stone fruits, and crisp, biscuity, malts with a rye-like spicy edge. Finish was bitter and satisfying. Enjoyable.

On cask at the Guildford Arms. Appearance - golden with a slight haze and a nice head. Nose - strangely for a pale beer there is something resembling dark chocolate or coffee. Maybe dried fruits is closer to the actual note. Taste - sultanas and dried orange. Palate - light to medium bodied with a creamy texture and a fairly good finish. Overall - decent ale and very interesting.

Pint from the Trent Navigation pub. Hazy golden colour with white head. Aroma is slightly medicine, and herbs hop. Taste of pale malts, soft spicy hops, and pale fruits, and a touch of soap

On cask from Robin Hood, Millhouses - Clear straw yellow body, lacing white head. Grassy nose, citrus and hay in there too. Taste has bite of sharp citrus and a finish as long as promised. A good one for a hot day ironically.
