On cask at Cloisters. Pours a dark golden colour with a decent white head. A lovely hoppy Citra nose with tropical notes. Similar flavours, nicely bitter and very drinkable!

Cask-conditioned at the Three Tuns, Bristol. Golden coloured with a slight white head. Aroma of floral hops and tropical fruit, with a touch of lemon. Flavour had some sweetish malts, more pineapple and citrus and a dryish finish. Fine.

Off cask at derby beer fest. A little disappointing for raw. Didn’t get much citrus flavours at all, just a bit bitter and a bit bland.

3.6 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 8/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 14/20
Cask at the Magpie, pours amber with a mid-coarse clingy white head and lots of citrus on the nose plus touches of grass and fruity malt. Then the palate is punchy Citra hops, yet well balanced with an underlying malt sweetness, and leading to a dry-bitter citrus hoppiness that just manages to avoid being acrid. Lovely.

Cask Handpump at Ye Olde Woolpack, Stockport 26/02/2011
Fruity hop aroma. Small white head. Golden coloured floral and hoppy with a hint of bitterness in a very dry malt finish.
3.1 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 13/20
Gravity, The Citra Marquee, Leicester 2011 (Thurs morning session). Orange amber, no head. Mild, grapefruit-hinting aroma with a scatter of extruded rabbit food. Soapy with hints of alcohol, cat food and light oaky tones; good cashew and grapefruit finish. Too soapy, lean and scoured of softening flavours- something of a disappointment, considering.
