Bottle. Amber with medium light beige loose head. Grass, grapefruit and biscuit aroma. Prominent caramel malt. Somewhat cloying fruitiness. Surprisingly gentle hops given the nose. [2.9] Again, smells nice. But the caramel just lobs.

Pours golden amber with a small head.Big citrusy aroma, but more tangerine than the usual grapefruit/orange. Also hints of tropical fruit, pine. Quite grassy. Some sweet biscuity malt with a little caramel.Flavour is more malt dominated. Quite clean. There’s some green grassy hops there but not as much as the aroma suggests. Finishes with a rather tame bitterness.Mouthfeel is very good, perhaps a little prickly at first but it calmed down soon enough.Quite impressive!
