APA base style but additions of lactose in the boil and kaffir lime leaf steep give this a hoppy but zingy and sweet lime finish... like the keylime pie!

Keg at BD Sheps Boost, 21/10/19. Hazed orange amber with a decent off white cap. Nose is citric pith, lime zest, grass, toasted grains. Taste comprises more lime zest, citric sherbets, sweet malts, lemon drizzle, grass. Medium bodied, fine carbonation, semi drying close. Ok refresher.

Third, tap at BrewDog Brighton, Collabfest 2019. Shared with Finn. Hazy grey golden body, filmy layer, spotty lacing. Perfumed lime on the nose. Similar taste of lime, rather perfumed. Okay, not a favourite though. (Brighton 17.10.2019).

Keg at BrewDog Canary Wharf - London. Pours hazy orange-gold with a lasting, creamy white head. Strong zesty citrus character predominates, with oily lime peel, bready malts. Medium bodied with fine carbonation. Finishes with further oily lime peel, decent sugary kick. Not bad.

On draught at BrewDog Leicester. Golden brown,only a bit translucent wirh a ring of white head. I get lime in the aroma but there's an odd plastic note in the aroma. This plastic note is unfortunately reproduced in the taste, along with some sweet citrus notes. I'm a Florida boy, and I can spot a 'Key lime' ripoff a mile away. That's not my only beef with this beer: it's unbalanced and unfocused. Shame, as I was really looking forward to this one. Still, it's drinkable, and it's made me aware of a new brewery that I'd love to give another try...

Keg at Brewdog Canary wharf. Collabfest 2019. A hazed dark orange coloured pour with a lasting fine white head. Aroma is big floral lime, zest, soft bready grains, zesty. Flavour is composed of some Turkish delight lime zest, doughy grains, wheat. Palate is soft, semi sweet, rounded, lowish carbonation. Ok.

Lime and lactose, but not as clear or sharp as the manta meringue
