330ml bottle. Clear, pale orangey, golden colour with average, thick, frothy, fairly lasting, moderately lacing, white head. Citrusy hoppy aroma, hints of lemon, a touch of lime, gooseberry, some straw. Taste is minimally sweet pale malty, citrusy hoppy overtones, notes of lemon, lime, hints of mandarine, a biting, minimally tart and spicy touch of gooseberry. Refreshing, easy drinkable. Clearly underrated imo.

Keg at the Lazy Fox, Fulham. Light gold. Clear with a reasonable white head. Malt led aroma, with a bit of earth and mild lemon curd. Bittersweet taste with a slightly acrid bitter finish. Not the best from this brewery.

50cl bottle from Tesco, Cannonmills, Edinburgh. Straw coloured with a thin white head; traditional English hop aroma; strongly bitter taste - woody and resinous, with just a hint of paint stripper; and a long earthy bitterness to finish. An assertively hoppy beer.

Bottle thnx to the bartender @ hoppy loft . Pours clear blonde, small to no head Smell is very weak . Taste is bitter, with loads of green-hops in the back . Amarillo is there, recognizable but very hidden . Very simple beer , that is drinkable, but not as drinkable as it should be due to a great bitterness . Don’t get me wrong, I love bitter, the more intense the better, but this doesn’t have the body or complexity to live up to the bitterness, making it way out of balance . Too bitter to drink , to simple and weak to taste . Carbonation is very good though . Ok beer I guess
