Bottle at home picked up from Oddbins London Bridge. Aroma is initially a little funky, belgian yeast, horsey, hairspray, spicy hop, edge of citrus hop. Some solvent on the nose. Clear bright golden / straw coloured pour wiith a frothy pure white head. Flavour is composed of sharp grapefruit, bit acidic on the tongue. hairspray and solvent, bitter orange, straw grains, light malts. Blance is completely off, Bitterness is aggressive and sharp, like hop oil. Palate is light and airy, spritzy carbonation. Not a fan of this.

Bottle from Oddbins. Hazy golden body with a thin white head. Low carbonation. Aroma of lime and orange sherbet. Flavour of zesty citrus, pear and a warming alcohol finish. Medium body with an oily mouthfeel. Light fizz. A touch too boozy, but quite nice.

Bottle in Gabrovo, Bulgaria - picked up at Oddbins London Bridge. Pours hazy, bright gold with a creamy, tight white foam head. The aroma holds a bit of tangy lemon, lightly soured tangerine, some pale bread, pine needles and hay. Medium sweet flavor with more tangy citrus character, some zippy mandarin orange, tangerine, some sugary pale bread malts, minerals, grass. Medium bodied with fine, spritzy carbonation. Lightly warming to finish with subtle sticky and oily hop resin, light herbal pine, more dry minerals, some understated bready malts, mild citric lemon, tangy tangerine. Interesting stuff. Quite drinkable for the strength. The tangy citrus character is interesting, like an overripe clementine or something. Novel stuff.

Bottle from Oddbins London Bridge. Hazy cloudy gold amber beer lasting cream head. Bit of orange on the aroma. It’s smooth in the mouth good carbonation some mineral character. Some more subtle orange flavour builds through the mouth some bitterness some heat but hides the abv well. Needs a bit more hop maybe. Subtle good condition ok lasting orange flavour.
