Commercial Description:
Cask, Occasional;
A new beer to come out of Otter’s holt (first available nationally at JDW), this is truly amber in colour, with a careful selection of traditionally malted barley and hops delivering a balanced, fruity, citrus flavour and soft, hoppy aftertaste. Hops used: Northern Brewer, Styrian Goldings, Willamette

Clear medium yellow orange color with a small to average, frothy - fizzy, fair lacing, mostly diminishing, off-white head. Aroma is moderate malty, straw, caramel, apple notes, light hoppy. Flavor is moderate sweet and bitter with a average duration. Body is medium, texture is oily, carbonation is soft to flat. [20090804]

Cask conditioned at a Wetherspoons. Amber with white head. Very fresh, I was there when it was pulled through and it showed, pleasant bittersweet hoppy notes on a thinnish, biscuity base. Some orange citrus notes and a honeyed touch in the close. Pleasant enough.

Handpulled cask at JDW Hatch End, Harrow. Amber gold with a white head. Good fruity bitter with peppery hop bitterness. Very deinkable.

A little darker than the name might suggest, strong citrus aroma and aftertaste, a little too strong if you ask me - slightly overpowering what would otherwise be a decent session beer.

Cask conditioned at The Pough, Congresbury, North Somerset (recommended for real ale enthusiasts). Pours clear amber with a nice foamy white head and decent lacing. Aromas of caramel malts and citrus fruits. Flavours of medium sweet cereal malts finishing with a nice gentle fruity hop bitterness that lingers. Medium bodied with a slick mouthfeel. Nice one.

Cask handpump at Fort St. George, Cambridge. Amber with a thick foam head. Floral hoppy scent. Lovely mouthfeel. Starts sweet then some bitterness. Cereals and biscuit in the mouth, then a hoppy citrus end. Spoilt by an odd metallic taste.
