Lattina. Il gusto al resta attratto dal luppolo. L'olfatto viene stimolato in maniera normale, permanendo in maniera sufficiente. Il cappello di schiuma ha una buona tenuta. La grandezza delle bollicine è a grana fine, con carbonazione abbondante. La parte liquida offre una visione offuscata. Il colore è giallo dorato brillante. Il corpo è pieno. L'amaro è deciso. La forza gustativa è elevata e la durata sufficiente. Le sensazioni boccali finali risultano di pronta beva. Il retrogusto è di decente intensità. Al palato arrivano note di miele, frutta secca, luppolo, un accenno di resinoso e pompelmo.

Can from Clapton Craft, Kentish Town on 22nd March 2020. Pours a slightly hazy gold with thick white foam and full lacing. Citrus aroma with zest and juice. Intense grapefruit in-mouth and a satisfying citrus finish. Medium bodied with a smooth yet engaging texture.

330ml can. Golden amber colour, white foam head and grainy malt earthy aroma. Taste is malty, toffee, some grains, with marshmellow and citricy grapefuity earthy bitterness. Medium bodied, soft carbonation, dry bitter finish. Quite OK

Can shared with OGJ on board Fridtjofen 08.12.18. Translucent golden. Fine white head and lacing. Inviting aroma of grapefruit, lemon, lime and mango. Similar taste. Citrus bitterness is lingering on.

Can at home, split with James, 10/11/18. Lightly hazed golden orange with a big old off white cap. Nose is grapefruit zest, fresh citric peel, grass, hint of pine, lemon zest. Taste comprises tangerines, lemon rind, toasted grains, citric tinged straw, lemon sherbets. Medium bodied, fine carbonation, semi drying close with mellow hop bitterness. Passable IPA ... taste nowhere near as good as the nose.

Half-pint, keg at Medicine Tap. Remaining white head to a muddy amber-brown body. Fragile lacing. Modest smell of citrus and grain. Blended malt-fruity flavours of grapefruit and dough. Bittersweet fruity end. Medium bodied. Satisfying. (Rochdale 03.05.2018).

Manchester Beer Festival 2018. Golden with a strength to it. Has some, but not a lot of grapefruit.
