(Cask at Kings Arms, Bethnal Green, London, 31 May 2025) Golden amber colour with creamy, off-white head. Hoppy nose with notes of citrus, herbs and Earl Grey tea. Fruity, hoppy taste with citrus, tea, apricots, herbs, white bread and a balanced citric/herbal bitterness in the finish. Light body, with a slight sweetness. Hoppy and refreshing. Nice one.
