A great golden beer with a fresh citrus, hoppy aroma. This wonderful wholesome organic ale has a dry and bitter finish which brings you right back to earth.

Filtered bottle. Golden coloured with a slight white head. Plenty of hoppy, grapefruit aromas. Citrus hops continue in the flavour, supported by some fruity malt. Finish was long and dry. One of the best British bottled beers I have had.

Cask at GBBF 2006. A dark yellow beer with a rim of beige head. The aroma is very lightly hoppy, while there is much more power in the flavor, with strong notes of aroma hops which gives it notes of grass - as a really fresh hoppy beer. The end has an OK bitterness to it.

Bottle picked up at Darts Farm, Topsham, Nr Exeter, Devon 12-11-06 had the same evening. Poured golden in colour, lovely fresh nose with aroma vanilla notes this is a crisp, fresh hoppy beer, with great fruity citrus flavours particularly grapefruit zinginess Loz chose this purely for the hare on the front, but she chose one of my favourite beers of the week. Cask conditioned gravity dispense at Merton Winter Beer Festival 17-02-07. Also great in cask format as one would expect nice light golden colour, plenty of flavour in this fresh fruity bitter excellent. also 3.9 in cask

500ml bottle from Asda. Old gold/copper colour with lasting rocky off white head. Attractive hop aroma. Quite intense for a UK beer, bit of sherbert, woody grapefruit. Malts are pretty good, some juicyness, but this beer is all about the grapefruit hops. Really rather nice. Something like an APA. On of the best aromas of any UK bottle beer IMO. I can see why others have rated it so highly. I like the intense hops and balancing malts.

(Cask at Akkurat, Stockholm 25 Apr 2006) Pale amber colour, with nice frothy head. Nose is fruity, with some sweet citrus and lemon or grapefruit aromas. Lots of nice hops. Fruity and hoppy taste with hints of grapefruit. Long, bitter and dry finish with loads of hops. A lovely little gem.

Cask at Oliver Twist, Stockholm. Clear golden. Orangey nose with estery peach and marmelade. Sweet with firm, rounded mouthfeel. Sugary, lightly fruity and very hoppy with intense resiny bitter finish. Very flavourful and solid.
