Yellow colored, strong soapy white lasting head. Aroma is malty, grains, citrus, herbal and floral hops. Taste is low to medium sweet malt, quite grainy, medium to strong citrus, herbal and floral hoppy bitterness. Lasting bitter aftertaste. Light bodied, moderate to low carbonation. Nice, easy and refreshing.

15.09.2015, 0,33l bottle @ home:
Big slightly fizzy-creamy longlasting head. Aroma is slightly dry floral, weeds, hay, leafs, flowers, moss, light malts, hops, minerals, bark. Taste is dry and harsh, bark, weeds, hay, hops, grass, light malts, minerals, medicine. Longlasting bitterness, harsh mouthfeel. Not really my cup of tea...

33cl bottle from Marks & Spencer, Camberley. Pale straw with a tight white head; citrus aroma with some pine resin thrown in for good measure; a big grapefruit taste; and a crisp clean grapefruit finish. Lots of flavour at a low ABV.

Cask at GBBF 2015. Clear gold, oily, a bit of bubbles. Grassy, pissy hop nose, NZ I would guess, grapefruit, light malt. Very hoppy flavor, Kiwi all the way. Grapefruit rind and pith, cat piss, astringent herbs and leaves. Interesting. Light honeyed malts in the back. Long, burning hop finish. A bit too much like hop tea, really, but nice.

Bottle. Some lacing left as the white head slowly slides down the glass. Lightly hazy pale golden body. It’s piney and resiny on the nose, with some citrus peel and a little touch of pale malts. There’s a nice bitterness in the flavor, with a little malty touch in the back. Resins, pine cones and citrus zest. Medium body and a nice carbonation. Lasting dry and bitter finish. Very easy drinkable and tasteful this one, sure quenches the thirst. 150808

Bottle. Really surprised I’d not rated this. Nose is lemon, lime, light grapefruit hint of lychee. Taste is resin grapefruit rind slight floral perfume hop note in the bitter finish. The mouthfeel is a little thin but that is a product of the low abv. The drink is too thin but has a fantastic amount of taste for the abv.
