Can at L42 - thanks to Colin. It pours clear golden with a medium white head. The aroma is soft, sweet, sticky, oily, grapefruit, tinned fruits, oiliness and treacle. The taste is dry, bitter, pithy ,zesty, oily, grapefruit, soapiness and tinned fruits with a soapy finish. Medium body and moderate carbonation. Comes across a bit artificial perhaps and lacks depth. So-so.

Can shared in London - cheers! Pours clear orange-gold with a creamy, white head. Vibrant grapefruit in the nose, big zest, not much else. Light-medium sweet flavour with more graoefruit, some rindy bitterness, pale bread, a little grain. Medium bodied with fine to average carbonation. Strong zesty finish. Fun stuff.

Can split at L42, .rar state rake, 23/08/17. Almost clear golden orange with a decent off white head that retains well. Nose is big on grapefruit zest, orange jelly, citric sherbets, straw. Taste comprises grapefruit, straw, orange peel, straw, light bread, toasted grains. Medium bodied, fine carbonation, semi drying close. Ok ... does what it says on the tin but pretty 1D.

Can from the Pineapple, Kentish Town. Dark orange/gold, mostly clear, with lots of visible carbonation and a quickly dissipating head. There’s grapefruit in the aroma, but it smells a bit artificial. Some orange peel and a touch of sweet spice as well. Thee taste is exceptionally pleasant: almost a lagery bittersweetness with the grapefruit notes sitting on top. Lovely rounded finish with tangerine and pithy pink grapefruit in the aftertaste. Different to a lot of IPAs out there and certainly worth trying.

Bottle picked up from The Angel, Bicester, Oxon, consumed at home sat in the garden cooking prawns in the company of Isobel on another lovely day, Sunday 9th July 2017 Golden in colour with a mid sized white head. There is a little grapefruit edge to this, sweet, juicy, perhaps too sweet, a little touch of dryness at the end. It’s petty good, a touch artificial perhaps but not bad at all. A6 A4 T7 P4 Ov13 3.4

355ml can @ Albert’s Shed, Shrewsbury. Pours clear gold, small white head. Aroma of artificially sweetened American tropical juice / Sunny D. Taste is juicy, definitely not all from hops, with a little too much tropical juice addition, some light bubblegum. It’s not unpleasant, and does the job for a light fruity beer on a sunny evening, but I couldn’t have another can.
