Keg @ Jolly Butchers 2013/3/11. Medium carbonation. Big body. Burnt orange and toffee throughout. Big flavours but overly sweet. Not balanced and relatively little hops as a result. Disappointing for one of my favourite British breweries but a decent enough IPA. Imagine it would be very sickly in cask.

330ml bottle from BeerRitz, Leeds. Hazy orange amber colour, very frothy & foamy white head and aroma of tropical fruits, citrus hop and a yeasty note. Taste is caramel with a burnt biscuity edge & fruity grapefruit citrus hop, along with a mellow dry bitterness which lingers. Medium bodied and well carbonated. Quite OK.

Cask (handpump) @ CASK Pub & Kitchen, 6 Charlwood Street, London, Greater London, England SW1V 2EE.

Light unclear medium orange yellow colour with a small to average, fizzy, fair lacing, mostly diminishing, off-white head. Aroma is moderate to heavy malty, caramel, moderate to heavy hoppy, pine, citrus, grapefruit, orange - citrus. Flavor is moderate to heavy sweet and bitter with a long duration, dry, hop bitter, soapy - fruity bitter. Body is medium, texture is oily, carbonation is soft to flat. [20120806]

Keg at CP&K. It pours hazy golden with a medium yellow-white head. The nose is tangerine, mango, tangy marmalade, sweet fruit, sharp lemon, grass and pine. The taste is mango, tangerine, passion fruit, pine, resinous, sherbet, light spice, grass and straw with a bitter, lightly citric finish. Medium body and moderate carbonation. Flavoursome and very well balanced. Works well on keg, very tasty indeed.

Bottle at home in London with Lyoli. Pours mostly clear, bright gold with a large, frothy white head. Rich ripe citrus nose, pectin, grapefruit, orange, some pine and grass. Medium sweet flavor, a bit of dank pine, smoked beechwood, orange, tangerine. Medium to full bodied with fine carbonation. Lightly resinous finish, slight hints of warmth, white wood, pine, grass, grapefruit, orange. Not overly bitter at any point, which is great. Good balance overall, with a good dank hop edge. Lovely.

Cask at the Ravensbourne Arms, Lewisham. Amber pour with a white head. Citrus and mango notes in the aroma, very nice nose indeed. Sweet fruit flavour, lots of tropical fruit, sweet spice and citrus in there. Soothing alcohol burn. Long fruity finish. Nice.

(cask@Ravensbourne Arms) Hazy amber/orange with a good medium white head. Aroma/taste is citrus tropical notes, mineral malt and pine, and does mask the alcohol level well even though you do get a strong boozy bitter finish. Very satisfying. Really liked this.

Meet the Brewer at CP&K. Cask. Hazy gold - amber beer, little white head. Light palate, a little dry with low carbonation. Nice hops - lemon and pine with some green hop sting. Mild peach and tangerine. Quinnine is a surprise! Semi dry finish. Okay - could be a little richer.

Cask@Cask Pub & Kitchen, London. Yellowish golden colour, minor head. Aroma is fruity, a bit vegetably along with some floral and earthy notes. Flavour is fruity, caramelly, floral and quite sweet with some slight vegetably notes. Long bitter hoppy aftertaste. Hides the abv well.

On cask at the Cask, Pimlico - 07/08/12. Pours to a slightly cloudy golden hue with a minimal white to off-white head which soon thinned to the edge. Sweet malts, sugar, caramel and ripe fruit on the nose and a dose of booze! Medium bodied with peachy and farmyard flavours, apples, and a hint of mango or bigger citrus fruit in there. Bittersweet dry finish and another kick of booze in the afters! Didn’t dig this one!
