Bottled, sadly not bottle conditioned and part of a Waitrose delivery, where I think it is sold exclusively
Pours a well rounded amber body with good, actually most excellent white head
Aroma is sugar barley and bitter yeasty notes
Flavour is copper coins and grist

Blind-tasted...
L- Bright amber, pours clear with a 2mm off-white fine-bubble head. ps@+5mins, forms some lacing on the way down.
S- Quite a bright smell, similar to what I'd expect from a British (trad) pale ale.
T- ... and the taste follows. Notable trad hops, hoppy dry with a slight zing on the tongue and throat on the finish
F- Lively CO2 on the palate. Quite 'dry' in that the hops+CO2 are prominent and malt presence relatively subdued.
O- Not quite my kind of beer for the same reason Brit pale ale isn't; I prefer less prominent hops and more malts lending at least some richness into the mix. When this might work well though is on a hot day as it should be refreshing and lightish feeling. Well put together though, zero rough edges, should appeal to fans of trad Pales.
500ml bottle £2.10 BB: Feb-22 Bought from a Waitrose in London.
Now I get to see the bottle: Ah it's an 'Amber Ale', 4.8%, Organic, Duchy ie part of the Prince of Wales's charitable business. Veggie+vegan.
