Panda thanks to Cloin. A light haze on this gold beer, small bubbly pale cream colour head. Light palate, mildly dry, decent fine minerally carbonation. Light bodied pale malts, a modest creamy sweetness. Sabro coconut and mildly ripe pineapple dominate the hops. Cooling pine of course. Mild citrus, reasonably bright but fairly watery. A light finish. Nicely Sabro but a bit thin and watery overall.

My last comprehension moment was with a Frenchman who came out of his house to tell me the bus I was waiting for only ran on Sundays. We worked it out despite the language problems. The beer has a juice yellow-gold appearance, although is certainly more bitter than juicy, with its high citrus content creating a beer that edges towards sourness without it being a sour! Fruitiest in aroma.
