Rocky white head left a froth on a hazy golden body. Tangy sweet citrus aroma. Medium bodied, soft & smooth with lighter clean back. Bitter orange, sweet citrus, grain & biscuit tastes. Excellent

Hazy golden beer, thick white head. Smells of bitter, grassy hop with a little tropical fruit. Crisp and sharp flavour of the hop again, grapefruit, grassy with a little citrusy sweetness coming through as you drink it. Nice clean flavour and a lasting dry finish. Very decent.

Keg at Casc, Aberdeen. It pours very lightly hazy golden with a thick, fluffy white head. The aroma is soft, sweet, sponge cake, muffin, custard creams, weedy galaxy hops, candied orange peel, peach and battenberg cake. The taste is dry, yet, creamy and doughy, soft, sponge cake, muffin, grassy, weedy galaxy, pine leafy, light spice, orange peel, booze and a nip of spice with a drying finish. Medium body and moderate, foamy carbonation. Delivers on all fronts. Very chuggable also.

Can from The Beerhive. Hazy golden body with a white head. Lively carbonation. Faint lacing. Aroma of apricot and orange pith. Flavour of grass, cigarette butt and a crisp, bitter finish. Medium body with a slick mouthfeel. Soft fizz. An interesting beer I’d gladly have again. It has a nice hoppy bite.
