Can at the Old Piggery, from HOTM online, 15/09/20. Murky yellow orange with a decent just off white cap that stays for a while then dissipates to a swirl. Nose is bitter orange, ripe melon, grass, citric tinged straw, grapefruit zest. Taste comprises more grapefruit notes, orange zest, light melon, bitter edge, grassy bite, mineral tones. Medium bodied, fine carbonation, semi drying close spiked with lightly astringent hop bitterness. Passable pale ... drinkable enough if perhaps a touch raw in places.

440ml can. Murky golden, white head. Aroma of peaches, pineapple, grapefruit. Taste is light sweet, juicy peaches, pineapple, grapefruit, moderate bitterness. medium body. Tastes suspiciously like a Wylam IPA, but in the best way possible - considering this is their core range it's excellent.

Can. Beer Central, Sheffield. Light haze on a medium gold. Thin, froth of white. Nose has clean malts, that come across a bit Pilsner like. Ripe grapefruit. A bit of the old dank and piny. Old school vibe. Taste has a decent punchy bitterness. Some malty sweetness on the lips. Clean mouthfeel. Fine carbonation. More bitterness to finish. Good. A change from all the joose.
