This is a superbly refreshing, straw coloured beer. English Pale malts combined with Challenger and Goldings hops provide a slight bitterness, followed by a distinct zesty and pithy grapefruit aroma that leads to a pleasing citrus flavour in the mouth.

30/5/2021. Bottle shared with Dan and ITFCfan, bought at a Coop in Ipswich. Pours clear bright gold with a small bubbly frothy white head. Aroma of lemon drops, citrus, malt, hops, touch of caramel and lemon sherbet. Medium sweetness and light bitterness/ tartness. Moderate body, slight oily texture, average carbonation. Hint of chocolate lime sweets came through to finish. Well above average SP beer.

Cask at YNWA Kolding. Hazy golden with a lasting white head. Malty aroma with toffee and biscuit and a touch of citrus. Sweetish malty flavour with slightly perfumed citrus peel. Good bitter finish.

500ml bottle; BB 31st Aug 2018. Poured into an Abbot Ale glass tankard at home on 16th Feb 2018. Clear golden body, white crown on top. As the beers name and labelling suggests, this has citrus leanings with a grapefruit front. However it is not too pronounced and although it certainly does have a grapefruit flavour it is not overpowering or too dominant.
