A pale ale with spicy, grassy aromas and a taste of grapefruit and apricot. Undercurrent is part pale, part oats and part caramel barley. Her swirls of bold, bready and nutty malt whirl into a concoction of spicy, citrus, floral hops. Mystery lurks in those cascade and palisade hops. Her silky, creamy body will pull you under.

Keg at Greyfriar, Reading. 19/05/17. Feint hoppy floral aroma. Hazy Amber. Creamy off-white head. Medium bitter with sweet undertones. Medium bodied. Slick. A prickle of carbonation. Long dry finish. Refreshing. Served too cold, suspect this took away some of its character.

Hazy deep golden color with a fine off white head. Good intensity in the aroma. Medium body and a fine carbonation level. Ok balance between sweetness and bitterness. Oat, caramel malt, fruity and citric hoppy flavor.

Tap at Damian. Quite fresh and juicy flowery fruity hops-centered piece. High attenuation, medium carbonation, very easy drinking. Quite the thirst quencher. Moderate bitterness, though it gets more pronounced towards the finish.

Off white fluffy head left a good cover on a hazy, rich orange coloured body. Tropical fruit & citrus. Medium bodied, soft on the palate, prickly on the back. Sweet citrus & tropical fruits to the fore with a grapefruit & pithy long bitter aft. Another excellent beer from Siren.
