Chelmsford Beer Festival. Almost clear paleish gold beer. Little white head. Palate is light and fairly dry with modest crisp carbonation. Floral malt, whisper of honey. Very modest citrus. Finishes dry and bitterish. Not bad, a bit dry but overall in good condition.

Cask gravity at Firkin Ale House Folkestone. Clear gold beer lasting thi white head. Citrusy hoppy aroma. Some sweaty sox flavour. Good swallow. That sweaty sox comes back on the finish. Decent but not quite my thing.

The Sun Inn, Kelvedon. Summer Beer Fest. Clear gold beer, little pale cream coloured head. Smooth palate with fine carbonation. Floral tangerine with a touch of lime. The description made me look for vanilla and I found a little! Finishes smooth with mellow bitterness. Well integrated and tasty.

Old Fountain. Cask. Clear amber beer, little off white head. Palate is smooth and semi dry. Moderate carbonation. The malts are a lot darker in character than you would expect from a beer of this colour. A distinct coffee flavour with mild roast. Back end has nicely judged juicy hops - orange and a touch of lemon. Subtle tropical fruits. Semi dry finish. Off the beaten track and pretty tasty!

Cask at The Doric Arch in London. Pours amber with a white head. Aroma is very citrus (citra was on the pump badge). Med body. Flavor is citrus and fruity over caramel. Hoppy for the UK, not to compare to US highly hopped citra based ales.Very impressive for the ABV. Finishes with a pleasant bitter bite.
