Hoppy spring seasonal ale out of Kent. Burnt orange colour and a good, lasting head. Aroma is surprisingly lager-like, dominated by resinous hops. Thin to medium-bodied and smooth mouthfeel. Smooth tasting, but with a tart, dry finish. (Bottle)

Bottle @ Oliver Twist, Stockholm
Quite hoppy aroma, taste more malt inclined, though. Thinner body than cask version. Very dry aftertaste.

Bottled. Deep golden. Fuggley hay aroma. Sweet and aromatic. Fresh maltiness accompanied by a wealth of hops. Medium bitterness. I like it better than the cask version.

Bottle, Sainsburys. Delicate pale bitter ruined by the dreaded boil. It ends up a total mess of fruit.

Bottled. Orange with a small and creamy head. Hoppy and grassy aroma; rubber. Rather hoppy flavour; a bit artificial with some metallic notes.
