Bottle split at Fifth Hammer, Long Island City, 12/04/23. Clear golden topped with a white head. Nose is funk, vanilla oak, green berry must, light honey, barnyard. Taste comprises funk, light acidic bite, gooseberries, tarte citric, wood must, lactic bite. Medium bodied, fine carbonation, semi drying close with a balanced acidic tang. Decent well balanced sour ... perhaps a touch on the sweet side with the honey presence but tidy none the less.

Cask at Fifth Hammer, Long Island City, 12/04/23. Hazed orange with an off white cap that clears to the edge. Nose is grass, melon, tangerine, straw. Taste comprises melon, straw, hint of mango, grains. Medium bodied, soft carbonation, semi drying close. Okay cask if a touch warm. Does not come over as a bitter ... more a hoppy golden blonde but I'm sure the brewer has a cousin called Dave who has a friend in Sheffield who once drank a bitter or some shit. Drank fine.
