Piney and minimally fruity, hoppy aroma, hints of pineapple and lemon, pale malty background. Taste is moderately bitter hoppy, slightly fruity, hints of white grapes, a cautious mineral vinous touch, pale malty basis.

Bottle at home in London - picked up at BottleDog, London. Pours hazy orange-gold with a frothy, white head. The aroma has a bit of pleasant tropical fruit, but also an off-note of chlorophenols - something like soap, or plastic. Medium sweet flavor with white bread, tangerine, light soapy astringency, lemon peel, orange. Medium bodied with average carbonation and massaging texture. Lightly resinous on the finish, with more pale bread, citrusy hops, some melon, papaya, that unfortunate phenolic off-flavour. This would be quite nice if not for the off-notes.

Tap@We Brought Beer, Clapham - pours orange with a white head. Fruity and malty aroma and taste with some great tropical fruity goodness, mango, pineapple, lemon and orange citric zing, fresh and zesty, went down a treat. Lovely. ---Sent via Beer Buddy for iPhone

Arbitrager. Keg. Hazy gold beer, small pale cream colour head. Palate is light, semi dry and has fine carbonation. Light malts, mildly sweet. Strong floral hops that have a bit of perfume and annoying mild soap. A little hop spice and a touch of tropical fruits. Light dry finish. Interesting beer, shame about the soap!

Bottle from Good Taste. It pours hazy bright gold with a decent foamy white head. The nose is rather nice....fresh, juicy, tangerine, dried mango, apricot and peach. The taste is pretty punchy - bitter, alcohol boost, tangerine, mango, apricot, orange marmalade, brioche, toasty grass and touch of spice with a dry, warming finish. Medium body and fine, foamy carbonation. A bit more alcohol than I was expecting given the abv. Saying that it is very juicy and fruity. A bit more refinement and this could be exceptional. Enjoyable nonetheless.
