On tap at Black Lodge, pours a clear blonde with a small white head. Aroma has a lightly spicy and herbal hoppiness upfront, with a touch of dankness. Flavour is very light, with gently spicy hops, toasted grains, and biscuity malt. Not much character but drinkable enough.

On tap at Black Lodge, pours a clear golden with a small white head. Aroma brings out gentle spicy rye, some light piney hops and crisp biscuity malt. Flavour is crisp, with gentle piney hops, and very lightly spicy rye. Not much character here really. Clean but uninteresting.

On tap at Black Lodge, pours a clear blonde with a small white head. Aroma is full of crisp grassy hops, some spiciness, and crisp crackery malt. Flavour is mineraly, with rough straw, toasted grains, and gentle spicy hops. Crisp, grainy and straw-like finish. Pleasant.

On tap at BrewDog Liverpool, pours an opaque cloudy dark jammy link with a large pink head. Aroma is full of lactose, vanilla and mixed berries — yep, sort of like ice cream. Flavour is less vibrant and fruity than expected, with muddled pithy berries, subtle lactose and obscured vanilla. I don't like these styles in general, but this somehow doesn't even manage to achieve what would be appreciable in such creations. Needs work.

Can thanks to my bro. It pours murky dark golden - blonde with a thick, fluffy off - white head. The aroma is sweet, tropical, orange creamsicle, peaches & cream, um bungo, pineapple, lilt, brioche, touch green, bubblegum and fanta. The taste is firmly dry, touch bitter, green, sappy, resinous, peppery spice, peachy, milk bottles, slightly chalky, tannin, orange creamsicle, fanta, marmalade sandwiches, peppery spice, boozey heat and a touch of rawness with a drying finish. Medium body and moderate carbonation. Nice quite as bright and clean as I would like.

Cask @ Bierheadz, Nottingham. Golden with a smooth head, and has a smooth hoppy taste too. There's hints of sweet tropical fruit in both aroma and taste.
