UPDATED: SEP 14, 2021 440ml can from Gloucester Services (going South): BBE June 2022. Drank at my parents on 9th September 2021. Pale golden body, clean and clear, white topping. Not much going on to be honest, light hops rule the nose and taste with a mini piney front, dry finish, a hint of orchard fruits if you dig deep enough.

UPDATED: SEP 10, 2021 Can. Pours a light gold colour with a fluffy white head, light hop aroma with some fruit, the taste is medium bitterness and fruity with a dry bitter finish.

UPDATED: AUG 4, 2021 440ml can from Gloucester Services, obvs, taken in the van at Barley Meadows, 17/07/20. Plain old clear bronze with a fine narrow top. Fresh herbaceous, hedge-like aroma with conifer and boiled caramel sweets. Drab, mildly peachy mineral taste with caramel, licked stones and toffee popcorn. Old dog, no new tricks.

UPDATED: NOV 8, 2020 (from old notes-@Soho Farmhouse, Gt. Tew, Oxfordshire 08/19) - Aroma : Not much…light caramel malt, tiny bready, floral & orange citrus notes. Taste : Thin bodied. Moderate bitter citrus bite upfront but no distinct citrus flavour can be picked out. Tiny amount of sweet caramel malt comes through later on. Not horrible, just dull and uninteresting

UPDATED: SEP 25, 2020 Keg at the Plough, Kingham. Behaved like a cask beer despite being keg. Aroma was unpleasant, honestly wafts of sick and pee. Apart from that, pretty decent taste and finish, light grass.

UPDATED: FEB 6, 2019 Gold colour with white head. Sweet malt, light watery citrus, bready malt, light stone fruit, light hoppy finish. Simple but solid enough

UPDATED: JUN 28, 2018 Bitter for people who drink lager. Dark gold, tight head. Slight floral aroma. Taste starts a bit sweet to start with, but slightly bitter finish. Not exciting but fine.
