Keg at Craft 100. It pours lightly hazy golden with a small white head. The nose is soft, fruity, tangerine, apricot, pineapple, mango and juicy fruit chewing gum. The taste is crisp, bitter-sweet, tangerine, passion fruit, lemon, sherbet, grapefruit, straw, alcohol warmth and dried mango with a dry finish. Medium body and fine carbonation. Big, punchy and juicy. Great.

Cask at Craft 100. It pours hazy gold with a small white head. The nose is fresh, juicy, orange, marmalade, tangerine and passion fruit. The taste is sweet, oily, syrupy, orange, tangerine.... then big raw bitterness, resin, raw grassy and straw with a lingering dry-bitterness. Medium body and fine carbonation. Slightly sticky. Jekyll & Hyde beer. Entices you with sweetness then hits you with a bitter hammer. Nice work.

Cask @ Hand Drawn Monkey, Huddersfield Town Centre. Hazy golden-orange with a very soured tropical fruit aroma and taste. There’s plenty of dry hops in this.

Keg. Leeds IBF. Hazy gold. Bubbly, white head. Very jammy. Grapefruit. Taste is dry, and crunchy bitter. Lots of pithy zest. More of that at the finish. Tasty gear.

Keg. Leeds IBF. Hazy, orange colour. Thin, white head. Boozy, sweet white wine cork. Quite grassy. Lots of ripe grape. Big, astringent hop comes through. The wine element is more sweet Riesling than anything. Taste is light tart, dry, and then hop bitter. Big chewy palate, offset by a dry, white wine tartness. Tart, bitter finish. Lots going off. Unusual, and interesting, experimental beer. Liked this a lot.

Keg at Leeds Int. BF. The pump clip says it all. Looks like it. Tastes a bit like it used to taste. But with lime in...
