This award winning golden beer has good bitterness levels, with a fresh citrus and hop aroma. A hoppy flavour throughout with a well hopped clean, dry finish.

(Cask at Cask Pub & Kitchen, Pimlico, London, 11 Apr 2014) Golden colour with foamy, white head. Fruity, malty nose with tropical fruit, grass and biscuity malt. Fruity, malty taste with notes of grass, tropical fruit, apricots, hints of grapefruit and a slightly resiny bitterness in the finish. Medium body, with a touch of sweetness. Refreshing and tasty. Quite nice.
