Keg at the Two-Tailed Lion, Leicester. Light gold, a little bit hazy with a tight creamy white head. Lemony aroma, a little bit eggy (not sulphrous) with grassy notes. Bittersweet taste, light citrus ending with a medicinal bitterness in the finish. Watery body, heavy carbonation. A bit on the bland side but drinkable.

Half cask at the Two Tailed Lion. Pale, clear golden, wispy head, streaky lacing. Light smoky aroma, fruity, sweet. Smoke still prominent in the taste, woody, muted sweetness, chalky. Interesting profile.

Handpull cask at the Two-Tailed Lion, Leicester. Its dark brown and a little translucent with a small beige head. Aroma is nutty and slightly smoky with notes of dark chocolate. Taste is sweet but surprisingly light, with a watery finish. Aftertaste, nothing at all. Body is like beer-flavoured water. What started as amazing has ended in disappointment, so all in all fairly average.

Handpull cask at the Two-Tailed Lion, Leicester. Mid- to dark gold, hazy with a thin white head. Enticing aroma of apricot, grapefruit, melon, floral notes. Taste is sweet with more apricot and a good hit of pineapple, with a bit of bitterness in the finish. Slightly medicinal in the aftertaste. One of Framework's beers that has really come off well.

500ml bottle taken away from the Two-Tailed Lion, Leicester and drunk at home. Pours a murky mid- to dark gold with a film of white head. Fruit juice on the scent - I'm getting grapefruit and melon and maybe a touch of apricot - with a light sourness. Bittersweet taste, again quite fruity with some residual sourness. Very short finish. Slight body with soft carbonation. A decent beer but not as good as Semper #1.
