Can, courtesy of Dad and Pauline, consumed at Spond, Herefordshire Sunday 14th July 2019, cheers Dad! Pours gold with a white head. The hops are a little soapy and the grapefruit a touch plastic and artificial tasting, despite these negatives this beer was not without its merits, however the standard and other variant(s) I've had have been better.
