7.4/10 Appearance 6 Aroma 7 Flavor 8 Texture 8 Overall 7.5
Draft at Tilt, Birmingham. Poured a hazy golden orange colour with a short-lived frothy white head. The aroma is grainy malt, tropical citrus fruits. The flavour is moderate bitter and sweet, with a crisp, malt, juicy orange, tangerine, light floral, dry woody hop bitter palate and a long bitter finish. Medium bodied with average to soft carbonation.

Hazy golden, white head. Light, grassy hop aroma. Flavour follows suit. Tropical fruit, bittersweet, grassy, some zestiness. Very hoppy, very drinkable.

Bottle at home, from HOTM online, 21/12/21. Light haze on a golden pour with a good sized Mr Whippy-esque white cap that stays for the show. Nose is soft malts, orange wine gum, grass, melon, bready notes, guava. Taste comprises gentle citric pith, soft malts, breads, melon, tangerine, light stoned fruits, hint of pine. Medium bodied, fine massaging carbonation, semi drying close cloaked in balanced lightly juiced up hop bitterness. An eminently chuggable and well balanced pale.

Bottle at home in Hackney - picked up from Figs & Grain. Pours lightly hazed, deep gold with a staunch, frothy, off-white head. Light-medium sweet flavour with notes of pine, peach, melon, ripening tangerine and orange, moderate bitterness, supportive lightly bready malts. Light bodied with fine, massaging carbonation. Finishes with mild resinous bitterness, more plump citrus fruits, pine, juicy mango. Nice clean bitterness lingers. Outstanding.
