Cask at Volo. Pours a cloudy dark gold with an average size diminishing creamy white head. Decent lacing. Aroma of butterscotch, yeast and light spices -- a little to butterscotchy, almost like diacytl. Refreshing flavour, quite easy to drink, perhaps a tad watery. Yeasty with caramel malt and spices. Averege bodied. This one is hard for me to pin down -- I do like it and it’s easy to drink, but it’s almost a bit too light for me and the butterscotch distracts. Still, I’d have it again and I’d like to try it on draught.

Cask, on tap at Volo. Hazy yellow pour, lacy head. Very citrus smell. Easy drinking. Slight orange flavour. Kind of plain, had better wits, though still nice on a spring day.

On tap at Volo. A big surprise of a beer. I personally enjoyed this one very much. Aroma was very sweet with bananas and cloves on the nose. Flavour was similar with sweet spices; cardamom, cumin, cloves. This drank like Denison’s Weissbier with a twist. Great job on this one Durham!

I’m the make-or-break score today huh? Oh well. here’s the scoop - draught at Volo. Pours a slightly cloudy amber with slight head and fine carbonation. Light aroma of yeast and citrus. Tastes slightly of apple and pear, is round, sweet, fruity On the light and refreshing side. I do like that it is not copycat. Not excellent and not bad either. * NB * the nearby smell of baking cheese was distracting for everything I drank on the Patio, LOL!

Pale straw, someone cloudy. A bit funky and yeasty (to a fault, locker room scents pop up), but lots of sweet malts in the flavour which is atypical. A bit creamy in the finish, almost like mozzarella cheese. This just isn’t right.

On tap at C’est What. Cloudy yellow with moderate white head. Lacey. Some yeast puffs up the mouthfeel. A bit sour yet quite drinkable.
