Can. Hazy orange gold beer, small pale cream colour head. Airy palate, mildly dry, decent fine carbonation. Light smooth pale malts bring a nice light level of creamy sweetness. Simcoe hops deliver a smooth and slightly floral orangey citrus with a whisper of very soft skunk. Modest citric peel and a touch of something tropical. All interlaced with soft pine. Comes together in to juicy finish along with some very mellow savoury hop. Nice. Soft and smooth.

Can picked up from Fresh Fields Market, Croydon and drunk at the hotel (27/11/2021) - hazy yellow with a white head. Loads of stonefruit with apricot and mango, peach, some tangerine and citrus rind, soft sweet malty support and a assertive hoppy finish. Lovely.

On tap at Kings Arms, 1/3 pint shared with Finn. Stable white head leaving rings of lace down the glass, hazy golden body. Hop fruity inviting aromas of peaches and apricot. Blended hop fruity taste as well, hints of apricot, lemon, and peaches. Long-lived ripe fruity ending, mid-sweet. Fine depth. Pleasing (London 15.11.2021).
