Bought from Salama bar at Hull Minster Beer Fest. Aroma has citrus and malts. Cloudy amber. Foamy white head. Flavourwise it's malt focused with subsequent citrus. Light-medium bodied. Slick. Soft-fizzy carbonation. Long dry slightly astringent finish.

A light yellow and hazy beer, a head is medium and blond. Aroma has grapefruit, but also unfortunately lots of green notes. Medium bodied. Something has gone wrong here.

Poured hazy and orange in color.
Tropical fruity, but without the usual Nelson hop aroma this time. Some grapefruity notes.
