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.

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

473ml can. Murky, yellow-ish, golden colour with average, frothy to creamy, moderately lasting and lacing, white head. Citrusy fruity hoppy and oaty, slightly wheaty malty aroma, notes of lemon, lemon peel, lemongrass. Taste is moderately bitter, citrusy fruity and grassy hoppy, oaty and slightly wheaty malty basis, notes of lemon, lemongrass, lemon peel, some citric tartness; oaty and hoppy finish. Slightly creamy texture, smooth and soft, simultaneously slightly dry palate, medium to fine, dense, mildly prickly carbonation. Intensely citrusy, but relatively monotonous, not overly creamy - pretty good, not my very best Root + Branch experience, though.
