This powerfully juicy and punchy combination of Australian and New Zealand hops packs tropical fruit and lip-smacking bitterness in spades.

Fra keg på Bread & Roses, Plymouth 25 Sep 16. Ferskenfarget. Veldig uklar. Lavt, kritthvitt skum. Smaken plommer & mørk frukt. Grei men litt tungdrikkelig.

Draft. An unclear golden beer with a lazing beige head. The aroma has notes of petroleum, spices, hops, straw, and malt. The flavor is sweet with notes of lemons, straw, petroleum, hay, and spices, leading to a bitter finish.

On keg, 6.3 % abv, half pint, shared with Finn at Bread and Roses. A white patchy head leaving spotty lacing down the glass. Cloudy golden i body appearance. Inviting tropical fruits on the nose. Fresh hop fruity taste of orange and grapefruits with fruity bitterness to the aftertaste. Rounded and smooth in the mouth. Refreshingly tasty (Plymouth 25.09.2016).

Hazy gold beer, good cream colour head. Palate is light and smooth, but has decent trailing minerally carbonation. Light and mildly sweet malts. Spicy orange and orange peel. Mild lemon. Trace of tropical fruits. Light crisp finish. Good but it could have been any hops in here, no Nelson grape or Galaxy punch.

Keg at The Fox. It pours cloud orange - amber with a medium white head. The aroma is fresh, green, grassy, dank, juicy, pine, lemon sherbet, bread and candy. The taste is crisp, dry, rather bitter, grassy, dank, spring onion, lemon parfait, earth, pine needles with a dry finish. Medium body and moderate, foamy carbonation. Pretty impressive stuff. Very drinkable.
