Can bought at The Fossil Thief, Portsmouth. Foamy translucent white head. Clear gold. Aroma has citrus and a hint of resin over grainy malts. Tangy bitter citrus with added quinine. Underlying not particularly prominent malts. Light. Thin to slick. Average-fizzy carbonation. Long dry somewhat astringent finish. Punchy Gold but still not an overly interesting beer which is at least befitting for the style.

Cask at Hole in the Wall, Waterloo. Clear bright amber. Thing foamy translucent white head primarily sticks to the rim. Aroma has a slight citrus tang to the chewy malty nutty core. It's more interesting in terms of flavour. Tangy citrus with caramel and spice. Doughy malts. Peripheral slightly off spice. Light-medium bodied. Slick. Soft-fizzy carbonation. Long dry somewhat astringent finish. Twiggy but somehow satisfying.
