Draft at the Beer Temple, Amsterdam. Poured a hazy yellow golden colour with a thin white head and some broken lace. The aroma is grainy, mineral. The flavour is moderate bitter, light sweet, with a smooth, rich, super fresh, floral, dry smooth hop bitter palate. Over medium bodied with soft carbonation.

Thick creamy oat laden malty and a big hop soup here with a tropical and citrus fruit malaise, green young dank hoppy, dense oat laden body and mouthfeel, spring onion, grassy and dank hoppy finish. Good but not up to usual Root/branch level expectations

Draft at Paragon, 3/25/25. Heavy yellowish color, white head. Melon, mango, papaya. Quite juicy. Leans sweet, but a light bitterness for balance. Tasty stuff.

Smooth and sweet, slightly juicy and tropical fruity. Has mellowed a bit, doesn't feel super fresh anymore.

Can at home from HOTM, 11th July 24. Pours a hazy orange, aroma is orange, pineapple, taste is dry, oranges, dank, orange sherbet, very dry, it’s kinda refreshing and drinks below the ABV, just not as great as I hoped for compared with other R and Bs
