Can. Waitrose. Lightly hazy, lemon gold. Lasting white froth. Nose has lemon rind. Juicy orange. Hint of pine. Clean malts. Taste is light, crisp bitter. A tad dry. Hint of fruity sweetness. Clean and refreshing on the palate. Bright carbonation. Lingering, light bitterness to finish. Nice one.

Can from Tesco. Golden in colour, with a slight, white, head. A touch of citrus hop, some tangerine fruit, light malts and a dryish finish. Fine.

From a 355ml can on 14/3/2019 (ABV listed as 4.2%). Pours a clear light golden with a small head. Has a pleasant light zesty citrus aroma. Taste wise, there's some bready malt, passionfruit, lychee and lemon, with a gentle bitterness at the back. Light bodied with average carbonation. It won't change your life but it's a very well made session IPA.

Nice refreshing and easy drinkable beer. A little bit more lemon peel than usual. Otherwise quite standard citric stuff.
