5-6% abv. Malted barley. Dry and light-bodied to better showcase the individuality of the hops in both aroma and flavour. A basic recipe is followed, with each batch utilising different hop varieties from around the world based on seasonality, availability, and the whims of the brewer.

On keg at the Red Squirrel. Appearance - hazy golden, usual Kernel look. Nose - papaya and bubble gum. Taste - some sort of strange merger between bubble gum and Turkish Delight and a tropical fruit (overripe melon maybe). Palate - light to medium bodied with a creamy texture and a long dry finish. Overall - good beer.

500 ml bottle bought at the brewery, bottled 11.10.16
Amber, hazy body, with a medium, fluffy, lacing, off-white head.
Aroma of earth, flowers, grass, citrus, apricot, some tropical fruits, slight biscuit.
Taste follows this, with minerals and some pine.
Medium, a bit oily mouthfeel, with a moderate carbonation.
Finishes medium bitter, a bit dry, floral, piney, earthy, citric.

Tasty. Very easy and fresh, with a lot of character at the same time. Lovely earthy and floral notes dominating. The balance is exceptional, pretty light bodied, but aromatic, with a restrained bitterness and sweetness. Almost perfect Pale Ale I could drink all day.

Thank you chriso (?). 500 ml. bottle sampled @ Pre-Borefts Ratebeer Tasting 2016. Hazy milky citrus. Nose is mellow white grape, kiwi, fruity but also quite mellowed out. Taste is bit yeasty, grass, quite doughy, plaster yeast, mellow white grape hop. Overall grass dominates strongly, bit too bitter for me, fruitier smell is preferable. Bit yeasty. Could have been more. Decent.
