Can from SN's UK webshoppe. It pours crystal clear yellow - gold with a medium fluffy white head. The aroma is fresh, clean, pleasing floral vibes, spring blossom, soft citrus, lemon curd, airy malts and crisp biscuit. The taste is crisp, dry, super clean backdrop, pleasing level of mellow bitterness, grapefruit, lemon peel, pomelo, spring florals, prickly pine and peppery notes with a dry, finish. Average body and moderate, supportive carbonation. Super crushable and quenching. Moreish.

About to have a beer called springfest on the eve of a winter storm of the century. Pour is a very light looking blond with a large white head. Aroma is grapefruit and lemon hops. Flavor is more bitter grapefruit hops. No malt to get in the way of the hops. She's a bitter one and quite tasty.

Can from a sixer from the local Sprouts. Pours clear bright gold with a transient white head. Grapefruit pith starts the aroma. Med plus body. Dry and pretty bitter. Pale malt support oerwhelmed by grapefruit pith. HInts of lemon and pale stone fruit. Excellent.

Very dry, crisp IPA, much in the Maine Lunch vein, with a quick pop of grapefruit pith, tropical fruit, and a touch of peach, followed by grass, a touch of grainy sweetness, and a mild piney bitterness on the finish. Very nice pint.
