Can@SBWF2015. Yellow colour, small white head. Aroma is floral, grassy, some herbal and mild sprucelike notes. Flavour is grassy, herbal, some dusty notes as well as some grains. A bit too dusty for it’s own good.

Can. Light haze on this gold beer, small pale cream colour head. Palate is light, semi dry and has modest fine carbonation. Light thin malts, mildly sweet. Hops are a light citric orange and mildly bitter pine. Modest hop spice and a trace of tropicals. Thin and dry finish. Goes down easy.

Jesus ... Chriso rate in 2015 ! Can at home, 26/01/16. Very lightly hazed pale golden to blonde with a well appointed egg shell white covering that retains well. Nose is pissy citrics, light dank hop strokes, sharp citric intake, melon, grapefruit, grassy vibes. Taste comprises light pine, mandarin, tangerine, orange pith, red grapefruit, toasted malt, light tea leaves. Medium bodied, fine carbonation, semi drying close peppered with dank and skunky hop tones. This was some turn up ... really good hop jus with a dank edge and loads of flavour for sub 4% !!!

Canned @ sbwf15. Pours deep golden with a thick white head. Grapefruit, orange, hops, floral notes. Fresh stuff. Grapefruit dominates. Thin, but good session IPA.

Can at home in London - picked up at UBREW in Bermondsey. Pours clear gold with a frothy white head. Wow, this smells great. Lots of pithy citrus, grapefruit, tangerine, some dry pine, crispy pale malts. Light sweet flavor with a slight mineral edge, a bit of rindy lemon, more pithy grapefruit and tangerine, understated pale malts, light grass and pine. Light bodied with average carbonation. Super clean on the finish, refreshingly pithy, with restrained bitterness, balancing pale malt sugars, more rindy citrus, pine. Great balance to this one. I have to say, I am quite impressed by this one. I can knock back six cans of this stuff without even thinking about it. I have enjoyed LBF’s other offerings, but this one is definitely a cut above the others.
