Lumina is our shining light, a 4.2% Session IPA glowing with juicy tropical fruit notes. Hoppy aromas of mango and pineapple guide you towards explosive flavour, flashes of delicate citrus highlights and refreshing balanced bitterness. Our epiphany of a session beer drinks with a pillowy soft mouthfeel and pours with a beautiful light haze.

Cloudy with a golden colour. The foam was white, medium and subsided quickly. A lot of fruity notes both in taste and smell, there are pineapples, apricots, peaches. In the background, not too obtrusive citrus fruit, some grass and mirabelle fruit. Medium carbonation, also bitterness. Ok

330ml can as part of a delivery from the brewery and drunk at home. Light gold, hazy with a small uneven white head. I get quite a lot of apricot from the aroma, along with some melon and pineapple. Bittersweet taste with a dryness in the finish that’s rare for these sorts of beers. Some citrus peel and more apricot in the aftertaste. Medium body, carbonation on the heavy side. Great stuff.

Session IPA in the NEIPA idiom, by one of England's leading postmodern craft breweries; can from Etre Gourmet. Thick and frothy, moussy, intricately cobweb-lacing, egg-white, quite large-bubbled but firm and stable head on a hazy yellow blonde robe with vague greenish tinge. Perfumey aroma of pitaya, starfruit, mangosteen, Thai basil, lemongrass, pepino, meringue, lime sherbet, hints of lychee, smoky ripe papaya, mango chutney, lemon zest, fresh lemonbalm leaves. Fruity, bit sweetish onset with vague sourish undertone, lively and colourful from the start and packed with flavour; hints of, again, starfruit, pitaya, mangosteen and pepino, lively carbonated with refreshing minerally effects - a bit sharp but, to me, very acceptable for an ISA; smooth middle, sweet-cereally and a bit doughy yet sharply delineated, light-bodied but still providing enough structure to support a construction of very aromatic, tropical and citric hoppiness, adding a soft yet 'fluidal' bitter aspect as well as retronasal aromas of starfruit, lime zest, cactus fruit and honeydew. Ends slightly peppery and dryish when this wave of yellow-green 'fruit-hoppiness' has passed, with a 'full' mouthfeel in spite of the modest ABV. One to drink all afternoon in an Indian summer weekend like the one promised by the weather man tonight, exemplary, refreshing, elegant and fragrant - a lovely little beer, with the NEIPA aspect mitigated by an intrinsic dryness. Very cleverly done.

Cask at the Railway, Streatham, London 30/07/2023 First holiday beer back in the hood ❤️ pleasing medley of light tropical and citrus fruit delivered, light malty backing, lovely soft cask carbonation and mouthfeel, bitter edged piney hoppy close. Very nice drop, and goes down a treat.

Keg at Waterloo Tap. Somehow have managed to never have this before. Aroma has light stone fruit and damp hops. Hazy light gold. Thin translucent white head. Light-medium bitter. A citrusy buzz throughout. Sherbert. Light-medium bodied l. Slick. Average-fizzy carbonation. Long dry slightly astringent finish. Unexciting if acceptable Session beer.

330ml can. Hazy, orange, bright golden colour with small to average, frothy to creamy, osteoporosing, minimally lacing, white head. Juicy, tropical and citrusy fruity, hoppy aroma, notes of mango and orange, some lemon, passion fruit, pineapple, sweet-ish, oaty malty background. Taste is slightly dry, grainy-oaty malty, citrusy and slightly tropical fruity hoppy, minimally diluted notes of lemon, some mango, orange, mandarine, pineapple. Creamy-watery texture, smooth and soft palate, very fine, dense, mildly prickly carbonation. Highly drinkable, light and refreshing - very nice.
