Bottle shared at Leightons place 21/03/2016. Many thanks to Colin for this one. Hazed golden yellow coloured pour with a lasting thin white head. Aroma is fruity citrus, juicy orange, subdued brett, wheat, some white bread. Flavour is composed of light white bready grains, orange and brett, hint of peach melba. Palate is light wheat, highish carbonation, medium light bodied. Decent, well put together.

Can shared in London - many thanks to Colin. Pours mostly clear gold with a creamy, white head. Nice aroma, with notes of pithy citrus, light tangy brett, grapefruit. Light sweet flavor with moderate flinty minerals, tangerine, more grapefruit, bready sugars, bitter rind, faint pine. Light bodied with fine to average carbonation. Fairly sweet to finish, with pale bread, light pine needles, grapefruit. Tasty, if a little simple.

Can thanks to Cloin. It pours hazy gold with small white head. The aroma is earthy, funky, fresh, orange sherbet, apricot, orange chewits, Pina colada and tropical fruits. The taste is crisp, earthy, bready, funk, orange peel, mango, tropical fruits and stewed pineapple with a smooth finish. Medium body and fine, foamy carbonation. Nice aroma and very drinkable.

Taste comprises bitter orange, sharp citric licks, Brett pangs, citric tinged straw, apricot. Medium bodied, fine carbonation, juicy hop rinse with a subtle Brett rasp in the close. Solid bretted sessioner.

Can. Curious Hop, Otley. Cloudy gold. No head. Nose has tangerine, grain and a whiff of brett. Taste is soft sweet, and very light bitter. Soft mouthfeel. Light bitter finish. The brett, as I suspected, hasnโt done its thing, yet. As it is, itโs just ok. Will re-rate.

Bottle thanks to allmyvinyl. Appearance - golden amber and hazy, with light haze. Nose - green plant stalk, then lime and something tropical. Maybe papaya? Taste - oh very interesting, mandarin and canteloupe melon super ripe. Again, citrus at the back. Palate - light to medium bodied with a creamy yet tangy texture and a long dry finish. Overall - lovely interesting beer.
