Bottle from Ales By Mail. Golden amber colour, not much head. Honey resin malt aroma & flavour. Lingering resin malty aftertaste. Disappointed with this one.

Bottled. Golden colour, small white head. Aroma is fruits, wood, nectar, some sweet malts as well as mild herbal notes. Flavour is fruity, wooden, mildly nectary as well as slightly earthy and yeasty notes.

Bottle. Losts of aromatic hops. Rather thin, bitter finish. Flowers in the tail.

Cask at cloisters. Amber glow with a small but consistent head. 5% version, says "premier" on the label, possibly different from listed. Sweet citrus hop nose. Taste is quite sweet, peachy fruit with a zesty tang. Muted bitter finish, subtle but long. Nice. Bit one-dimensional.

Cask conditioned Handpump Vat & Fiddle Nottingham A light gold coloured beer with a slight off-white coloured head. The aroma is fairly thin but there are some citrus notes. Fairly decent orangey notes. A bit of malt backbone. Not bad.

Cask at Wellington Arms, Bedford. Slight citric hop aroma. Pleasant if simple fruity, taste with a sharp bitter finish. Acceptable.

Cask handpull at Battersea BF 09. Pure gold colour, lasting white head. Some hop. Decent condition. It’s an alright golden beer.

Cask at Paisley Beer Festival 2008 ... amber ... musty hop ... light fruity hop ... non descript.
