Hazy amber - gold beer, small pale cream colour head. Palate is dry and crisp. Light thin malts, not that sweet. A little dry dusty grain. Pithy citrus - grapefruit, little orange and a whisper of apricot. Mild floralness. Touch of esters before a dry finish. Pithy bitter linger. Nice flavours but a dusty dry.

Light haze on this gold beer, thin pale cream colour head. Palate is light and dry and minerally crisp. Light thin malts with some dusty grain. There is indeed a touch of strawberry amid the marmalade hops. 5256 hops? The elderflower is really quite subtle. Light dry finish. Not bad but less grain would be better.

33cl bottle from beer52.com. Deep mahogany with a ring of cream froth; aroma of richly roasted malts, with a touch of chocolate, earth and nuts; more deeply roasted malts in the mouth giving coffee and demerara sugar flavours; and a sweet earthy bitterness to finish. Pleasant and very moreish.

Cask @ Rising Sun, Manchester. Dark but not black, with a small off-white creamy head. Has a slightly milky texture and taste to its roasted malt that gives it a gentle smoothness in the palate.

Bottle at Craig’s house. Appearance - golden with a thin head. Nose - lemon and orange. Taste - not as exciting as nose, light citrus. Palate - close to medium bodied with a tangy texture and a fairly nice tangy finish. Overall - this is decent.
