Keg at the Hanging Bat. Pours clear lemon yellow, thick white head. Aromas are buttery and floral, light citrus. Taste has more butter, kind of spoiling it for me.

(bottle, 33cl) Slightly hazy, pale golden colour with a blond mid-sized foamy head. Fruity, slightly woody and delicately piney hoppy aroma with notes of citrus, grapefruit and a tinge of white bread. Moderately bitter and delicately sweet flavour, light to medium bodied with a moderate carbonation. Dry hops character with notes of citrus and spruce, accompanied by mildly bready pale malt; dry and bitter hoppy, slightly sulphuric finish. 19.XII.13

Bottled. Lightly hazy pale golden, small head. Aroma of elderflower and black currant. Mid sweet with medium body and rounded mouthfeel. Really bitter finish. A modern session IPA, highlighting NZ hops.
