Dec 12, 2008 Handpulled cask at the Mermaid, St. Albans. I, have enjoyed this beer in many pubs and find it hard to believe Ive not rated it yet. Pale gold with a thick white head. Lovely fresh citrus hop aroma. Stunning flavour of fresh american type hops with grapefruit and sherbert. A fantastic session beer..

Dec 9, 2008 Cask at Cole’s/Mr. Goodbar Cask Fest.
Aroma is wet, leafy hops, a fine malt reveals itself too, hazy amber. Taste has a fresh fruity compliment to the leafy hops and malt. Light bodied, excellent balance, completely easy to drink. As good a session ale as I’ve had in a long time.

Nov 20, 2008 Hand-pumped at the Wenlock arms in northern London.
Pours a clear golden amber color with a frothy white head. Subtle hop aroma with slight pilsner malt presence. This is a very smooth drinkng beer. It is kind of watred down yet has a creamy characteristic with nice subtle soft hops. Crispy, refreshing nice dry finish but not very bitter.

Sep 22, 2008 on cask @ Wenlock Arms (London). I walked in, checked the badges, and "HOPHEAD" seemed picked out in neon - hel-LO! Slightly hazy light gold pour with an average creamy white lasting head. Very light aroma, but solidly herbal-hoppy backed by slightly sweet oily grain malt. The taste - the same, even more bitter than I expected, and decently acidic - it went down very smoothly; and quickly. The mouthfeel was oily and a touch light, moderately astringent over a soft, verly lightly carbonated base - the herbal hoppiness carries through into a welcome linger - this really takes its time finishing.

Sep 8, 2008 Cask, 4.8% at GBBF08. Weak hop aroma. Almost clear golden colour. Small stable white head. OK grassy hop flavour. The bitterness is a little rough. Not that hoppy, and not that good.

Sep 5, 2008 Cask (Guide Dog,Southampton) - Golden in colour. An incredibly enticing hoppy aroma with some grapefruit notes and a twist of lemon. Bitter and hoppy taste with tangy grapefruit and a lovely hoppy finish. Excellent, so much flavour for the strength. A superb beer.
