As pale as a 100W light bulb but as juicy as an IPA. Session-able, quenching and totally addictive. Biscuity malt base with a hint of sweetness all drenched in fruity/dank hops.
Malt: Extra Pale Ale, Vienna, Oats, Caragold, Carapils. Hops: Simcoe, Centennial. Yeast: LalBrew New England.

Can 440ml (KSM Kampus) Hazy yellow colour, small white head. Yeasty, citrusy, even some grain-like notes. Light-bodied. Citrusy, some lime, pale malty, some watermelon in the flavour. Decent but nothing to pay over 6€ in the grocery shop.

(Can, 0.44 l - canned on 29.04.2020 - BB 29.10.2020, from Pikkulintu, 20200519) The beer poured golden and quite hazy. Its head was medium sized and white. Aroma had pine and fruitiness. Palate was medium bodied with medium carbonation. Flavours were fruitiness, pine, resin and bitterness. Aftertaste was hoppy and bitter. A bit thin but pleasant nevertheless.

4/6/2019. Keg at True Craft, Tottenham. Pours hazy yellow gold with an average size lasting white head. Aroma of citrus, hops, grass, grapefruit and passion fruit. Light sweetness, medium plus bitterness, moderate sour. Moderate body, slight oily and watery texture, average carbonation. Very nice, just lacked a little body.

Keg at the Real Ale Classroom, Leicester. Bright yellow, beautifully hazy with a lot of visible carbonation. A bit of white head on the top. Excellent little aroma: I'm getting pineapple, coconut, grapefruit, vanilla. Sweet taste loaded with juicy hop, turning slightly bitter in the finish. Ok, so the body is a bit thin and it's far too carbonated but that's small beer (see what I did there) compared to the overall impression.
