On cask at Barrels Ale House, Berwick - slightly hazy light yellow body, no head. Taste harsh grapefruit, some grassy hops on the nose. Not a fantastic one, sadly.

Bottle thanks to allmyvinyl. Appearance - Victorian plum colour, edges of amber orange, red and brown in there. Rich creamy head. Nose - toffee, orange shred marmalade. Taste - more caramel with some nuts this time. Palate - close to medium bodied. A bit sweet but reasonable freshness on the finish. Overall - decent.

Panda pop thanks to Shig, raked at home, 30/08/20. Lightly hazed orange with an off white cap that dissipates to bubbles aside the glass. Nose is sweet malts, grass, tangerine, hint of melon. Taste comprises light orange peel, hint of red apple, grains, grass, faint breads. Medium bodied, fine carbonation, semi drying close with a modest level of bitterness. So so affair ... doesn't really deliver on flavour or hop presence.

Bottle shared with Grumbo: Poured a golden with white fluffy head. Aroma is hoppy, little eggy, sulfur. Taste nice sharp hops, fruity, refreshing.

21/8/2020. Bottle from Northumbrian Gifts. Pours slightly hazy pale gold with a bubbly/frothy just off-white head. Aroma of citrus, grapefruit, grass, melon and a little starch. Moderate sweetness and medium bitterness. Moderate body, slight oily and watery texture, average carbonation. Nice crisp clean finish. Not bad. Preferred the taste to aroma.
