Keg from Moxie Beer Truck, Bishop Auckland Food Festival. Murky orange gold colour, no head and aroma of tropical fruits, citrus, hoppy. Taste is malt caramel balanced with mango, citrus, and dank resiny hop bitterness. Medium bodied, soft carbonation, dry resiny hop finish. Nicely drinkable

(Tap sample @ Witchstock 2018, Toronto, Sept 29/18) Pours hazy pale gold with a white head. Notes of bright zippy citrus, lemon and grapefruit rinds, papaya/melon, sweet biscuits, fresh grass, light tones of dank tropical fruit playing around in the back. Softly sweet up front with a bit of yeasty powderiness and a mineral crisp finish that's lightly bitter. Light to medium bodied with soft carbonation. A lovely little pale from Cloudwater, when they're on they really nail the APA nicely.

Can at home in Hackney - cheers to the CW superstars for sourcing. Pours foggy gold with a creamy, white head. Not bad overall, some semi-ripe citrus fruits, honey, pale biscuits, straw, lemon rind, melon, faint grapefruit. Medium bodied with fine carbonation. Decent balance in the finish, some pithy citrus notes, a little hop dust, mellow rindy bitterness, more tangerine, grapefruit. Sound.
