(Cask at Priory Arms, Stockwell, London, 31 July) Colour is pale amber with small head. Nose is malty/fruity with apricots and an earthy/dusty hop aroma. Taste is fruity with orange, mandarin, apricots and notes of earthy hops in the balanced, dry finish. Lots of taste regarding the low alcohol level. Excellent session beer.

Cask conditioned @ Humble Plum, Soton. Light coloured bitter with delicate malt & full earthy hoppiness. Not the fullest most mindblowing flavours but well done and balanced. Going back a couple of days later (compared to the sample from a cask fresh on that afternoon) the beer was still good but the flavours were fading leaving the bitterness (of which there is a reasonable amount for a low alcohol beer) to be prominent.
