Third of a pint at the Shrewsbury CAMRA Beer Festival on 25th September 2025. Opaque milky lemon coloured body, white crust. Intense lemon and citrus bite, aroma also laden with citrus esters. Orange like flavours also in the mix once the lemons had calmed down a little.

Very slightly hazy gold with a frothy white head and a fresh fruity nose, satsuma I’d say. Fresh and fruity, soft citrus bitterness, delicate light malt and a dryish bittersweet finish.
