Cask at Oliver Twist. Tried the UK and NZ hopped versions. Golden colour with a small white head. Both have fruity, floral, citrus aroma. Flavour is fruity, hops, caramel. The UK hopped version more bitter, but both very similar.

Cask at Oliver Twist. This rating is for the version with East Kent Goldings. Slightly hazy golden with a small white head. Very refreshing and drinkable with fruit, some grass, malt and something that reminded of honey.

[Rating based on the East Kent goldings-version and a small sample of the citra]. Cask @ OT. This is how I like me Skebos! Really, really drinkable with a deliciously smooth body. Notes of mango, honey, cereal, flour and some reisin. The citra version is a bit more grassy and flowery, altough not as extreme as to be expected from a single hop citra-beer.

Cask at Oliver Twist. Citra version: Lots of passion fruit and peach, some citrus. East kent goldings: similar furityness but less citrus and some floral notes. Both versions has a nice fudge malt base. Very smooth and drinkable.
