Bottle/Keg: 4.5%. Cask: 3.8%.
A refreshing golden ale brewed with malt and hops in perfect balance to deliver an easy drinking ale with citrus and tropical fruit notes and a crisp satisfying bite. With the addition of orange peel in the brew the beer has an enhanced refreshing flavour.

Bottle from Beers of Europe [181216]
Golden, floating particles of protein, thin frothy head, poor appearance
Aroma of soft citrus lemon, soft floral hops, dab of sweet orange, rather dull nose
Taste of soft pale malts, light orange, dab of flavour hop, hint of lemon, caramel malt, gets duller with the drinking, not much hop flavour in this
Palate - Soft carb, medium body, bit oily
Overall - Disappointing for Fuller’s - I can see why no-one bothers to import this to Ireland

Growler fill from cask. Clear golden with a tiny bit of white foam. Aroma of grains, malt, bread, honey hint, citrus, floral hops, and some minerals. Mildly sweetish flavor, malty, grainy, bready, with a bit of minerals, some fruitiness, and a decent bitterish hops finish, citric and floral. Quite light-bodied. Decent and easy-drinking.
