This multi-award-winning beer is pale, refreshing and extravagantly hoppy with gorgeous aromas of tropical fruits. Brewed with 100% extra-pale English barley malt and flavoured with heaps of choicest Brewers Gold hops, sourced with care from small-scale growers in the Hallertau.

Cask at GBBF ’10. Gold pour with a white head. Fruity, hoppy nose with a hint of pear and peach. Crisp citrus flavours. Nice, fruity bitter finish.

Väldigt lätt ljus ale med mycket humlenärvaro om än snäll sådan. Mycket tropisk frukt men nästa helt utan beska. Fin sommaröl

Cask @ 3 Judges. Very nice to have come across. High expectations for this one. Light golden colour, white head. Aroma is sweet malty. Flavour has sweet malts, is dry and has some fruits. Overall disappointing, nothing more than a regular golden ale. Definitely worth a rerate! Rerate. Cask @ 2nd Larbert Beer Festival. Aroma and nose of flowery hops, soft malty, medium bodied. Very balanced. +.4

Cask at the Wenlock Arms on 6th June 2009. Pale golden clear ale with delicious blend of floral, grass and citrus fruit hop aromas; bitter kick and long hoppy and fruity finish. Frothy white head. Consistently good everywhere I’ve had it. An excellent beer, and moreish.

[bottle] Hazy, pale golden colour with a short foamy white layer. Spicy and slightly flowery hoppy nose with notes of citrus and a moderately sweet malty background. Bitter flavour, light but not watery body, moderately carbonated and dry mouthfeel. Delicate malty base with a citrus-fruity, piney and slightly spicy hops character. Bone-dry and bitter hoppy and quite lasting finish. Aromatic and well-crafted brew [22.XII.08].

From cask at Charlies. Pours clear and golden yellow, bubbly white head. Solid fruity hops aroma. Flavour is sweet and fruity. Light peachy accent from the hops. Quite smooth and easy. Smooth fruity and ligh bitterness in the finish. Nice one.

Cask at The Pride of Spitalfields. Light stone fruit aroma. Darker gold color with a white head. Medium body with mild carbonation. Flavor is like peach with citrus over pale malt. Touch of bitter. Fruit varies from time to time. Finishes softly bitter without wholly losing fruit notes.
