Oh yeah. Another heavenly sent hop juice from The Kernel brewers. Highly recommendable stuff. Unclear golden color with a fine thick white head. Nice inviting grapefruit hoppy and tropical fruity aroma. Nice body and a fine carbonation. Good balance between sweetness and bitterness. Semi dry ending. Grapefruit hoppy, pine and tropical fruity flavor. One more please!

On tap at the brewery. Hazy gold colour lasting white head. Tropical fruit aroma. A burst of orange and passion fruit in the mouth. Wow that’s wonderful. Beer of the day at 09.30 in the morning. Some earthiness but the fruit intensity is outrageous. Some bitterness on the finish. Just like drinking fruit juice. Exceptional

Hazy amber beer, good pale cream colour head. Palate is light and smooth with fine carbonation. Airy and semi pale malts, lightly creamy sweet. Hops are a delightful mix of floral sweetness, orange peel bitterness and fresh orange. Followed by a trace of hop skunk and passion fruit led tropical fruits that also show pineapple, lemon and grape. Little hop spice before an airy semi dry finish. Pithy mildly bitter linger. Lovely stuff.

Keg at Mother Arch, 17/01/15. Lightly hazed golden yellow with a decent off white covering. Nose is juicy hops, orange pith, mango, straw, grapefruit, melon. Taste comprises citric pithdom, tangerine, light pine, mango, juicy citrics, light sweet edge, more pine - pretty high pine boost for an APA. Medium bodied, fine carbonation, juicy nelsonisms in the close with a lingering hop bitterness. Solid APA from the Kernel.

Keg at the brewery. Pours unclear yellow-gold with a creamy white head. Nice citrus hop nose, some pale bread, white bread, tangerine. Medium sweet flavor with some gummy white grape, ripe tangerine, melon, more white bread. Light bodied with fine carbonation. Nce and juicy on the finisj with further pale malt sugars, orange, lemon meringue. Good stuff, perhaps just a touch too sweet.
