On tap at Christian Firtal Pale Ale Festival 2018. Hazy golden with a lasting white head. Fruity hoppy aroma with citrus and grapes. Sweet fruity flavour with a touch of bready malt and a nice bitter finish.

Draft. A hazy golden beer with a lazing beige head. The aroma has notes of hops, spices, citrus fruits, and malt. The flavor is sweet with notes of malt, spices, hops, straw, and citrus fruits, leading to a bitter finish.

From the tap at FOB, Rimini, Italy. Pours crisp gold with a fluffy head, white and slightly irregular. Aroma is citrus, like grapefruit. Body is medium with low carbonation. Taste is fairly bitter, of the citrus type. Finish is long enough, with residual bitterness.

Bottle sample at a tasting at Lior D’s place. Thanks Lior D. Clear golden. Slightly stale citric hops aroma. Dry flavor with bitter citric hops, slightly stale. Medium-bodied. Quite nice and refreshing.

Bottle shared. Thanks Raul! Light tropical nose with some mango alongside citrus and with lots of floral notes as it warms. Well-balanced with nice malt character. Nice lingering bitter finish.

Pours light, even very transparent and just a bit brownish. Nose is also relatively modest, malty, hint of caramel. Tastes fresh and malty with some fragrant and not overpowering hop character. Long dry and earthy finish. Lingers on for ages and crisp bitterness remains even after the beer is long gone. This one would be really good from large pint-sized glasses.
