Jul 13, 2009 Cask at The Old Fountain, Old Street, London. Had this many many times before, just back from Old Street where I had 3 pints of this nectar this evening. Lovely golden/orangey pour with decent white head. Aroma of hops, fruit, pineapple, tropical fruit. Tastes of pineapple, mango, banana, quite malty and rich and sweet. This beer is absolutely delicious and has to be one of the tastiest English beers when on form. I love it and wish I could get it more easily.

Jun 27, 2009 Cask - Fat Cat, Norwich. Clear, light orange in appearance with a fine but bubbly, diminishing white head. Orange peel aromas initially, giving way to crisp citrus and grassy characters. Grassy, grapefruity, resiny hops with a subtle maltiness and orange peel. Hugely flavoured, hugely crisp, hugely refreshing. Medium mouthfeel and body with a bitterness that clings on to your tongue like a toddler does your leg.

May 19, 2009 (Tap at Fat Cat, Norwich) Chose this expecting something special after reading reviews on here. Wasn’t disappointed. Looked a golden orange with a small head. Smell was unusual flowery hops - must be the amarillo, not a hop I’ve had before. Strong rich aroma which was very pleasant. Good distinctive hop taste, quite bitter but still very refreshing. Well balanced, light enough for the summer days, very drinkable and very tasty!

May 6, 2009 Cask. Golden yellow, small fizzy head. Aroma of sweet orange, funk, reminded me a bit of sweat. Might have been a bit off. Flavour was packed with citrus and other sweet fruits, grassy notes, and quite a bit of sweet malts, almost brown sugar. A bit thin and could use a bit more carbonation.

Apr 28, 2009 Cask at The Wenlock Arms. Pale golden, small head. Potent herbal aroma, followed by more herbs and grass.Like drinking a newly mown lawn. Uncompromisingly bitter. An extra special bitter indeed.
