Bottleshare at Leighton’s flat. Thanks to Leighton. Almost clear gold beer, decent pale cream colour head. Nice Nelson nose. Palate is airy and smooth, good fine carbonation. Soft light pale malts, little creamy sweetness. Nice fruity Nelson hops - grape, little orange and mild hop spice. A little grapefruit peel before a semi dry finish. Very good.

Bottle thanks to Leighton. It pours golden-orange with tiny suspended particles and a medium white head. The nose is fresh, juicy, sherbet, orange, touch of grass and zesty grapefruit. The taste is crisp, btter, orange rind, grapefruit, straw, toasty grass and some alka seltzer action with a dry finish. Medium body and fine carbonation. Great aroma to it. Crisp, bitter and rather drinkable.
