A Catalyst is a substance that enables a chemical reaction to proceed at a faster rate than otherwise possible. A juicy American Pale Ale driven forward by mountains of American hops. Punchy citrus aroma gives way to intense tropical hop flavour.

Can from Tick Beer. Cloudy gold with moderate sized white head, nice retention. Aroma of orange, stone fruits, mango, some pine. Taste is hoppy and fruity, orange, melon, passionfruit, a slight pine resin note in the finish. Modest bitterness. Nice, very sessionable.

Saturday 13th April 2024, Bertie, Margie and I in Tamworth on a pub crawl. Hand-pulled third of a pint, on a flight of three cask ales. Golden body, white top. Citrusy from start to finish, yet another golden citrus flavoured beer!

440ml can delivered from Hoptimism's final delivery. Pours light gold, hazy with a large and slightly loose white head. Fruity aroma, lots of orange and pineapple, a little bit of sulphur which I didn't expect. Balanced but mostly sweet taste, lots more pineapple here, with light fruity hop bitterness in the finish. Oily body, lightly carbonated. Good.

Can from Craft & Berry. Appearance - cloudy yellow to orange. Slightly off-white head. Nose - tinned orange and peach. Taste - orange and apricot, tinned again. A little zest cleans it up. Palate - light bodied, creamy texture, balanced bitterness and a nice linger. Overall - good.

Can from the brewery online shop. Pours hazy golden orange with a short-lived thin white head. Aromas of citrus and banana. Taste is creamy, banana and stone fruit. Not quite the citrus burst I was expecting. Sweet finish.

Can at home in Hackney - sourced from the Trembling Madness online shop. Pours hazy yellow-gold with a frothy, pure white head. Quite nice overall, with moderate sweetness, some white grape, semi-ripe citrus fruits, soft bitterness, pale bread, ripe lemon. Light bodied with fine, massaging carbonation. Decent balance to the finish, more pale bread, ripening lemon and other citrus, white grape, a little mango. Highly drinkable. Good stuff.

Keg at the Corn Exchange, Hull, 20/02/20. Hazed golden orange with a decent off white cap. Nose is passionfruit, grass, citric pith, melon. Taste comprises orange pith, light pine needle, grass, melon, airy malts. Medium bodied, fine carbonation, semi drying close spiked with juicy hop bitterness. Not bad.

Keg @ Nightjar, Hebden Bridge. Fully hazed amber with a creamy head. Has lots of carbonated air in its mouthfeel, which disguises the hoppy nature of the beer too much, at least on this pour. There's some fruit in its nose.

Keg, half pint. Tasted on the 20/04/2019 at Grub, Manchester (England). Bright hazy golden colour with almost no head. Aroma is slightly mango, peach and Citra hops. Taste is fruity and citrusy leading to a balanced and refreshing hoppy finish. Next one please!
