Cask at Egham USC Beer festival, Surrey. A hazy golden/amber coloured pour with a medium fluffy white head on top. Aroma of fresh citrus fruit, hops. Tastes hoppy, crisp, citrus fruit, quite dry, pine, slight bitterness and very drinkable. I had quite a lot of this in the Surrey sunshine, good session APA.

Bottle bought at the brewery. Hazy amber in colour with a slight white head and moderate carbonation. Massive aroma of grapefruit, lemons and orange blossoms with a hint of pine in the background. Flavour had plenty more citrus fruit, with some pineapple and lemon grass, with a decent, biscuity malt base and dry, slightly honeyed finish. Excellent.

19th January 2011 Very hazy orange amber beer. No real head but you need a careful pour with these proper bottle conditoned beers. Crisp dry palate. Traces of orange and tangerine in the nose. Bitter pithy oranges that blooms and blooms in bitterness and is still going well in to the aftertaste. A little creamy malt underpins. Nice beer but so very bitter! 3.5

Light haze on this gold beer, small pale cream colour head. Smooth palate, light and slightly soft, decent fine carbonation. Soft malts, a nice light creamy sweetness. Columbus hops present here as smooth pine and smooth slightly ripe orangey citrus with a touch of orange peel. Little tangerine and mellow lemoj in there. Trace of smooth mangoish tropical fruits. Smooth finish. That'll be smooth then! Very crushable!

Bottle at Mes Tasting. Pours cloudy, light gold with a fine head. Lots of fruity hops, orange and pineapple, some honey. Delicious flavor, some bread, caramel, lots of citrus biitters but not too biting. Light to medium in body with fine to aerage carbonation. Clean, slightly zesty citrus finish, lightly dry, bits of honey, grass and hay. Really, really nice.
