330ml bottle from Docks Beers, Grimsby. Gushed on opening with a waterfall of beer flowing down the bottle into the sink. Rescued about half thankfully. Hazed yellow appearance, small but solid white head. Good welcoming spiced salty aroma, nicely fruity. Taste is nicely spicy, mildly tangy with a nice saltiness running beneath. Not picking up any chili, coconut or coriander as others have.. but it's pleasantly fruity with orangey leanings and nicely flavoursome. Decent, despite being a gusher.

440ml can from Docks Beers, Grimsby. Drunk in Louth after seeing the seal pups at Donna Nook. Misty yellow appearance, good foamy white head. Good zesty pine aroma. Noticeable grapefruit zest emerging to taste with a firm pine bitterness, some orangey nods. Interesting flavoursome IPA.

330ml can from Docks Beers, Grimsby. Drunk at our holiday lodge in Louth. Pours dark, slight haze with a good off-white collar of foam. Aroma has coffee roast, tonka beans. Taste is smooth with a good chocolatey character, plenty of tonka beans coming up the rear bookended by some pleasant coffee roast. Medium to light body. Nice blend, drinks well.

Cask @ Docks Beers. Pours a misty golden amber, white foam atop. Aroma of soft citrus, light marmalade hints. Taste continues along these lines, fairly malty with firm bitterness and unusual fruity shades, which now that I see kveik is used probably comes from this yeast. No such information on the pump clip. Ok overall, but a bit confused.
