Nice yellow colour with small creamy head. Aroma is fresh and hoppy with some citrus and grass. Flavor is dominated by the hops. Palate is super.

Cask conditioned - Gravity Dispense - Bedford Beer Festival. Straw golden coloured bitter with a beautiful citrus hop aroma. Very well balanced full on sharp hoppy taste, which is so clean and drinkable. One of the very best UK cask ales, belies its strength just tastes of hops and more hops. A real IPA???

(Cask at The Wharf, Aalborg) - Golden coloured with very floral nose. The taste is like most other of their beers dominated by the very "in your face" hoppiness, yet still being pretty wellbalanced and full bodied.

Cask conditioned at the Three Judges, Glasgow. Bloody good. Light gold with a thin head, the taste was all citrus and hop, with a fruity aftertaste. Alcohol concealed well as I am now finding to my dismay, there’s no way that was a 5.2% beer.

Cask at the Pride of Spitalfields, London. Glorious pint. Very fresh and light fruit. Hops abound. Lovely aftertaste that leaves you wanting another.

Cask@Charlies bar Copenhagen. Pours a hazy golden, with a small white head. Aroma is grassy, hoppy, fresh. Taste is sweet malts, and lots of grassy/flowery hops. Long dry bitter aftertaste.

Cask at the 3 judges in Glasgow. Minimal haze obstructs the light golden hue. Flowery and kinda perfumey, rather funky hops with a wild side. Not too grainy in maltiness, but slightly nondescript, letting most of the place to the hops. Fresh flavoured, bright and pretty aromatic. Limited minerals despite the light salty touch. Mellow melon undertones introduce the sandy, evolving bitterness. Tannic upon the finish that is bready and long-lasting. Good indeed, if not my favourite golden ale.
