In Salix, Hallertau Blanc was paired with Centennial resulting in a surprisingly clean pale ale. There's mango in abundance, with mandarin and grapefruit. It's crisp, not syrupy, and this leads into a very refreshing, lightly bittered, pink grapefruit laden finish.

(Cask at Southampton Arms, Gospel Oak, London, 22 Nov 2018) Pale amber colour with foamy, off-white head. Fruity, hoppy nose with citrus, grapefruit, orange peel and floral hops. Fruity, hoppy taste with notes of citrus, grapefruit, orange peel, tropical fruit, some candy sugar and a balanced citric bitterness. Medium body, with a certain sweetness. Fresh and tasty. Nice one.

Can courtesy of and shared with Tderoeck @ Taquito and buffalo turds night. BB 22/04/2019. Dorée, col blanc. Arôme est superbement bien houblonné avec des effluves me rappelant le cône de sapin, spruce, pin et sève avec un rétro fleuri et bien fruité oscillant sur fruité un peu tropical et raisin. Malté assure une belle balance. Palais est léger, ici aussi le houblon brille de mille feux, aspect forêt de pins - même si les houblons ne s'y prêtent pas, note de pamplemousse, sève et pin, petite note malté caramel.

Tap. Murky yellow, big white head. Leean jam like aroma, fruity-hoppy. Similar taste, thin jammy fruit, lean and nice! Solid hoppy beer.
