This absolute belter is a staff favourite here bringing all the hop game with a fraction of the booze. Clocking in at only 2.8% this lad is built on a base of Vienna, Oats and Wheat before getting heavy whirlpool and dry hop additions of Mosaic and Vic Secret for a heavy nose and flavour of passionfruit, apricots and melons.

Can from Drankenhandel Leiden. Aroma is fruity hops with citrus, orange, grapefruit, orange peel, tropical with some mango and light pine. Malt base is there but more subtle than I expected considering what they threw in. Flavour is a bit sweetish and medium bitter. Body is light to medium. Lots of character for a 2.8 abv.

Tap at Winter Affair 2025. Hazy golden-orange body, off-white head. Brown sugar and citrusy notes in teh aroma. Lean, dry taste, peachy ice tea, sweetish, lean, light, quite nice for what it is!

Pours hazy pale yellow with a white head. Aroma has notes of malt, citrus, catpiss and pine. Taste is light sweet and light to medium bitter with a long citrus, piney and grapefruit finish. Body is light, texture is thin, carbonation is soft.

[44cl can from Beer52.] A hazy straw coloured pour with a billowing white head; tropical fruit aroma; quite tart tropical fruit taste to start, then some juicy mandarin; with a firm fruity bitterness. Very tasty and refreshing, definitely an all day beer.

Can in the garden, 17th May 2020. Pours a hazy straw colour. Aroma is dry, fruity, citrus and tropical. Taste is citrus, dry, medium bitter, some pith, loads of flavour for the low abv. Easy to drink and beers enjoyable with it

(Keg from Buli food truck, 20200502)The beer poured yellow and cloudy. Its head was medium sized and white. Aroma had grapefruit. Palate was light bodied with medium carbonation. Flavours were fruitiness, grapefruit, menthol and bitterness. Aftertaste was hoppy and bitter. Tasty and surprisingly balanced.
