The South African has a bit of haze on its pale amber colour, and a thin head. Seems like there’s some fermentation wobbliness here, light toasted electric wire phenols – kind of mellow but definitely noticeable. This detracts from any brightness that might exist in other components, like the sooth-efrikken hops themselves.

The aroma is flintstones candy hops, chalkiness galore, though in a nice way. Has good foam on a clearish gold body. Flavour is bright hops, citrus notes, pine in the right way. Mouthfeel is crisp and oily. This is very nice.
