Can at home in Hackney - picked up from Figs & Grain. Pours clear honey-gold with a creamy, pure white head. Lightly sweet with simple grainy malts, nips of bitter grass, husk, hay. Light bodied with average carbonation. Fairly clean on the finish, more grainy pale malts, some husky and grassy bitterness. Not bad.

Pours a slightly hazy pale amber, with a hint of fruit malt on the nose. Nicely carbonated mouthfeel, carries along a sweet, malty taste with a bitter edge to it

Cloudy pale gold with a frothy white head, and a mild citrus fruit aroma. The flavour is fruity and hoppy in equal measure, with some biscuit malt sitting in the background, and a nice bitter hop finish

Almost clear pale gold with a frothy white head, and a feint cut-grass aroma - nicely carbonated, giving it a smooth mouthfeel and a crisp freshness, some sweetish fruit flavours and a hint of bitter hop in the finish.

Cloudy pale gold with a fluffy white head, and a mildly bitter fruit aroma. A very slightly grainy mouthfeel brings along some mellow fruit flavours and a nice bitterness, edging towards a pine character but not in a big way.

Third, keg at Tap Social Movement. Shared with Finn. Patchy white layer, bright golden body, spotty lacing. Mid-dry smell of grassy hops. Fruity grain to the taste bud, dry. Ends rather smooth and mid-dry fruity. Fair enough. (Oxford 25.10.2019).
