American style pale ale, dark gold in colour with a delicate white head. Citrus and floral aromas lead into hop flavours characterised by grapefruit and mandarin produced by American hops. A dry bitter finish makes this an eminently enjoyable and refreshing beer.

Cask in Bull & Castle. Clear orange amber with a thin head, good lacing. Aroma is light fruit. Flavour is grainy to start with leading to an intense and long lasting bitter hop finish. Palate is dry

Cask at Hilden Fest 2012 - 25/08/12. Slightly hazed copper orange in colour - not a pale ale in my book! Sweet malt nose leaning towards caramel. Tastes a little of ripe tangy fruit with a bitter sweet finish, medium body with a commensurate level of carbonation.

Half a pint from tap at the Porterhouse in Dublin. Clear golden with a (small) white head. Spicy aroma (cardamom?) with hops, some fruit and notes of metal. A bit metallic taste with some bitterness, not so pleasant, a bit strange. Hints of citrus in the flavour. Lightly bitter finish with hints of spices. Ok beer, but nothing special. (2011-06-11)

Draught at Bull & Castle, Dublin. Clear golden, creamy head. Rich grapefruity hop aroma. Mid dry with clean rounded mouthfeel. Well hopped and light bodied with balanced bitterness. An elegant, really enjoyable thirst quencher.
