Wow that’s good. Reminds me of the very best out of VT. A little dank, a bit tropical, supportingly bitter. Some tangerine, peach, pee, rind, background pale malts. Moreish. Balanced bittersweet finish. Superb.

Holy fucking bollocks I’ll try a third fucking time then. Fucking fuck off. Bottle. Kernel advent box. Hazed gold. Could have been mostly clear but I tipped all the shit in. Beautiful Kernel swede. Nose has an unreal medley of pineapple flesh and skin. Proper dank leafy sweaty Simcoe. Juicy slightly overripe orange and sweet grapefruit. Even a bit of soggy stone fruit for good measure. Taste has some fleeting sweetness getting robust pithy piny bitter. Creamy and good drinking. Bitter finish lingers nicely. Pretty stunning overall.
