(Cask at Wenlock Arms, London, 19 July 2011) Pale golden colour with frothy, white head. Fruity nose with citrus, peaches and tropical fruit. Fruity, hoppy taste with notes of citrus, tropical fruit and grassy hops in the finish. Light body, with a touch of sweetness. Not really exciting, but decent and refreshing. (Abv is 3.6% according to my notes and the brewery webpage.)
