Bottle at home in London - picked up at the Offy in Whitstable. Pours totally clear gold with a lasting, creamy white head. Simple pale grains in the aroma, a little lemon peel, damp straw. Light sweet flavour with further grainy, pale malt character, some grassy bitterness, moderate astringency, grain husk. Light bodied with fine, massaging carbonation. Finishes with a further astringent note, more grassy bitterness, husky grains, faint plastic, citric hops, some further peel. So so overall.

Bottle from Leighton at level 42. It pours hazy dirty golden with thick white head. The aroma is soft, sweet, bready, grass, sweet bread, muffin and a touch of old lady fart. The taste is dry, some bitterness, soapy citrus, grassy, hay, pine needles, grainy and easy peel with a dry finish. Medium body and moderate, foamy carbonation. Not so bad.

Bottle at The Thomas Tallis Canterbury. Very dark brown beer lasting beige head. Chocolate liquer aroma. More of the same in the mouth with some dark cherry flavour. Good mouthfeel. A little sour towards the end. The best of the 3 beers so far. Dry finish. Good chocolate malt and then a little sour cherry and plum flavour. Ok.
