Level 42 Bottleshare. Thanks to Fergus for the can. Hazy gold beer, thin white head. Airy palate, modest carbonation. Soft pale malts, mildly sweet. Mild citrus, touches of orange and lemon. A mild citric zip livens the whole beer. Smooth semi dry finish. Tidy.

33cl can from Beer52.com. A hazy amber pour with loose white head; tropical fruit aroma; muddled tropical fruit taste with a spicy bitterness; and some warmth. Fresh and fruity, but not the best of its type.

Can at Level 42, thanks to the procurator fiscal of L42/Watforde, 14/11/16. Light hazed on a golden orange pour with a decent off white cap that thins to a swirl. Nose is grassy hop, light pine, straw, tangerine, light floral, melon. Taste comprises orange pith, mineral tones, straw, toasted bread, grains, melon. Medium bodied, fine carbonation, semi drying close tempered with light hop bitterness. Average for style but drikable.

Can shared in London - many thanks to Fergus. Pours clear gold with s fluffy, yellowish cap. Pretty nice citrusy hops in the nose, some pine needles, dry pale malts. Light sweet flavour with a little mineral flint, pine needles, crisp biscuits, lemon peel. Light bodied with average carbonation. Clean and dry in the finish, with more pithy citrus, dried biscuits. Solid sessioner.

Can thanks to Alex from Fusion. Appearance - golden amber with a light haze. Decent lacing on top. Nose - creamy blood orange. Lime on the end. Taste - a wee hint of tropicalbut the lime/orange is dominant. Palate - light to medium bodied with a creamy texture and a long dry finish. Overall - this is very tasty.

Can from The Beerhive. Hazy amber body with a thin off-white head. Steady carbonation. Faint lacing. Aroma of dried grass (which makes me think of Motueka) and orange peel. Flavour of pineapple, melon and blood orange. Thin body with an oily texture. Light fizz. Crisp and hoppy. Enjoyable.

Tap @ Crown and Anchor Brixton, small sample. Clear golden color, short frothy head. Aroma of slight citrus, bit grainy malt. Soft bitterness. Bit boring.
