Get ready for a hazy, sessionable remake of the American IPA. Flavours of gentle pine support intense stonefruit, passionfruit and grapefruit, finishing with slight malt sweetness and a pleasant bitterness.

Keg at Heidrun HW, 29/04/22. Hazed orange amber with a good sized lasting cream cap. Nose is tangerine, passionfruit, sweetshop, grass. Taste comprises pineapple chunks, grains, tangerine, airy malts, grass. Medium bodied, fine carbonation, semi drying close splashed with mellow juicy hop bitterness. Passable pale... bit on the sweet side and lacking bitternes... not terrible but what you come to expect from a big regional attempting to corner the craft market.

Keg, 1/3 pint on a sample tray, shared with Finn at Brewpoint. Low white head leaving rings of lace on the glass, hazy golden body. Moderate smell of mid-dry citrus. Hints of orange and grapefruit to the taste profile. Rounded citrus ending. Refreshing with decent session qualities. (Bedford 18.11.2021).

Pair of 330ml cans shared with my other half as part of a delivery from the brewery. Mid- to dark gold, a little hazy with a thin white head. Light aroma of tangerine and grapefruit. Sweet taste with orange soda notes, fading to gentle bitterness in the short finish. It's as simple a beer as you're likely to have but it's refreshing and does the trick.
