Golden in colour Chiron offers a superb balance of tart hops, juicy malt and tangy fruit while the lingering finish offers a hint of apricots and tangerines before a biscuity malt and hoppy finish.

Bottle @ Van Moll Brewpub shared with Casper. Clear orange-golden color, full sized white head that lasts for a long time. Aroma is lovely: nicely hoppy, lightly floral, tropical fruits, tangerine, mango. Taste lightly malts, hops, floral, blossom, fruity, tropical fruits, nice subtle bitterness. A bit dry finish, average body, suitable carbonation. Very nice!

Draught, Kazimier Garden, Liverpool. Orange gold looks with a meek white head. Decent grassy/pissy hop notes in the nose. Flavour had more tidy hoppage with some balancing malts and pleasant fruitiness. Dry lengthy bitter finish. Very sessionable indeed.

50cl Bottle from De Bierkoning. It’s an APA according to the label, and to my taste buds. Golden yellow colour, white head. Aroma of lovely hops, citrus, grapefruit, grapes, hint of tropical fruits, really bright and refreshing. Flavour is crisp, citrus, white wine, grapefruit, light crisp malts, light-bitter citrus finish. Light-bodied, extreme drinkability. Great.

500ml bottle from Appellation Wines. Pours clear gold with a thick white head. Aromas are grapefruit and lemongrass. Taste has a good bitterness and balancing sweetness, more grapefruit comes through, and a touch of resin. Light body, creamy texture, average carbonation. Nice lingering bitter finish. Good stuff.

Draft at Euston Tap, London on 21 September. Poured a pale golden colour with a thin white head. Floral hop aroma with hints of lemon zest and hay. Light citrus flavours with tropical fruits, grass and bready malt. Finish is quite dry; pine needles, grains and some lemon grass. Ok session beer.
