Cask-conditioned at the Seven Stars, Bristol 6/10/2014. Golden with a thin, white, head. Aroma of grapefruit, tangerines and slightly creamy mlats. Flavour had plenty more fruits, a touch of yeastiness and led to a big, bitter, finish. Enjoyable.

Half pint, cask ale at Craft Beer Co, Clerkenwell. Naked surface to a clear amber coloured body. Minimal lacing. Leafy hops and bread on the nose. Taste of forest fruits and brown malts with a backdrop of citrus peels to a dry and bitter ending. Good drinking (London 23.09.2014).
