UPDATED: JUL 2, 2012 Cask @ Corn Stores. Mid gold, small head. Bags of aroma, oranges. Less on first taste than expected, but after a few sips there’s a pleasant lingering bitterness. Flavour builds as the pint goes down - more oranges, maybe tropical fruits. Thinking of UmBongo... Bit thin in the mouth. Hugely pleasant surprise from Fullers!

Cask in the Viaduct Tavern, EC1. Lovely clear golden colour. Nice citrus hoppy aroma, taste is well balanced with firm biscuit malt holding the American hops together well. Lovely long juicy hop finish. It was a horribly muggy day but this drank really really well. Not too strong on the booze, a great hoppy bitter.

New seasonal from Fuller’s, tried on cask at The Red Lion on Whitehall, London. Quite a pale golden colour, well-hopped with strong citrus notes. Quite light in the palate making it refreshing and drinkable. Good beer, hope to see it around London more this summer.
