Hand pulled half pint at the Pheasant Inn & Brewhouse on 23rd May 2025. Bright and clear golden body, white crown on top. Nice, easy going Pale Ale, slightly more malty than hoppy, but it's close.

Hand pulled half pint in the garden of the Black Bear (Whitchurch) on 23rd May 2025. An Australian IPA according to the pump clip, so assuming it's got Aussie hops within. It may well have, but I didn't pick up on anything strong or different, this is a subtle IPA, nice enough but nothing stands out aroma or flavour wise, just a pleasant blend of hops and malts which I enjoyed while sitting in the early evening sunshine.

Gravity poured half pint at the Black Bear (Whitchurch) beer festival on 23rd May 2025. Black with a smooth, soft beige crown. Malty with a chocolate leaning, slight liquorice hints in the finish. Nice!

Hand pulled half pint in the Black Bear (Whitchurch) during their beer festival on 23rd May 2025. Clean and clear blonde with a white topping. Grassy nose and a malty flavour, leaning towards sweet rather than bitter.

Half pint, gravity pour; Black Bear (Whitchurch) on 23rd May 2025. Light golden body, clean and clear, white crown on top. Citrus front with a more floral balanced finish, it's a gentle rather than 'in your face' hop centric brew.

Half a pint from a box, Black Bear (Whitchurch) on 23rd May 2025. It's a fairly sweet cider with a cherry like flavour on the apple base.
