Pours somewhat hazy yellow golden, topped with a large frothy head, white and pretty lasting. Medium hoppy nose, mostly citruses and some grassiness. Gentler bitterness, some citrusy presence and a hint of peppery presence in the finish. Lighter body. Very fresh.

330ml bottle @ A la Biere Comme A La Biere, Paris, sat outside. Pours hazy pale gold, medium white head. Hoppy aroma, grapefruit, passionfruit, pineapple. Taste is similarly hoppy and refreshing, plenty of fresh flavour for a moderate ABV. Hits the spot.

Hazy golden with large white head. Aroma is lychee orange grapefruit. Taste is oily bitter with fruityness. Oily mouthfeel but too heavy for drinkability. Ok.
