Hazy amber colour, small white head. Pine and "yeasty fumes" in the nose. Light-bodied. This is quite flat. Caramalt, pine and harsh bitterness in the flavour. Something is not ok here.

On tap at SalamaNation, pours a clear copper golden with a small white head. Aroma has some tangy NZ hops, woody pine, light citrus, and a touch of sticky malts. Flavour is maybe less well-expressed of the hops, with citrusy hops, pine, and a touch of tanginess. Wouldn’t have guessed this was a double. Smooth and clean but smells better than it tastes.
