Punching above its weight in flavour, this is a clean, crisp beer with subtle fruitiness from Nelson Sauvin hops.

Cask, third, shared with Finn at Manchester Beer & Cider Festival, Brewery Microbars. Bubbles on the surface of a clear golden body. Spotty lacing. Moderate smell of grassy hops. fresh tropical fruits to the taste buds, grainy backbone. Short mid-dry bitter tail. Satisfying. (2nd day at the festival 23.01.2020).

On tap at Zagreb Beer Week 2017. Cloudy pale golden, medium to a large white head. Mostly grainy, very lightly fruity, grassy. Hoppy, fruity flavours. Light body, moderate carbonation, nice finish. Well done for such a light golden ale.

Bottle. Amber coloured beer with a reasonable head. The aroma is toffee and caramel with yeastiness. The flavour is bitter with toffeeness and a bit too much beery yeastiness. Overall an average beer. ---Rated via Beer Buddy for iPhone

Clear, pale golden colored, small+ white head. Aroma is of some pale malt, bit biscuit, medium lemony citrus and some fruit hops. Taste is medium- sweet pale malt, biscuit, bit grainy, moderate lemony citrus and fruity hops, medium+ lasting bitterness, dry finish. Light+ bodied, soft+ carbonation, watery, crisp. Quite bitter and with enough flavor for the ABV. (on tap, Craft Room, Zagreb)
