On tap at Faction. It pours a clear light golden color with an off white head. The aroma is grassy and earthy. Hints of grapefruit and coconut. The flavor is smooth with more grass, dank earth, coconut, orange and hints of toasted malt. Very dry with solid bitterness. Interesting stuff, these South African hops.
