This Pale is little in ABV but absolutely packed with Citra hops for big notes of sweet peach, soft lime and fresh grapefruit.

Keg at Heidrun, HWY, 27/12/2025.
Hazed orange yellow topped with an off white cap that thins to a swirl.
Nose is juicy tropicana, grapefruit, grass, melon, papaya.
Taste comprises ripe pineapple, melon, stone fruit hint, grass, grapefruit.
Medium bodied, fine carbonation, semi drying close spliced with juicy come lightly resinous hop bitterness.
Solid pale for the meagre ABV.

Draft at the Shaking Hand, Shirley, Solihull. Poured a hazy yellow golden colour with a lasting frothy white head and some broken lace. The aroma is grainy, grassy, weedy. The flavour is moderate bitter, with a fresh, crisp, mineral, light tart lemon, grapefruit, somewhat watery, spicy hop bitter palate and a lingering bitter finish. Medium to light bodied with average carbonation. I guess low alcohol, low duty beers like this are the future of brewing in the UK!
