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.

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.

Can at home. Pours hazy golden yellow orange with a white head. Aroma: pale malts, wheat, citrus peel, moderately hoppy. Taste: light sweet & light to moderate bitter, minerals, citrus rind & pith, lemon, lime, pine. Light to medium body, average carb, dry light bitter finish. The minerality dominates the hops.

Can: Poured a hazy orange with a fast dissipating white head. Left jello white film on top. Aroma is huge citrus and grapefruit. Taste comes at you juicy hops and leaves with a mellow grain cereal finish.

Draft @ The Experiment Verdant-Pressure Drop taproom, London. Dorée sur léger trouble, col fin blanc. Arôme est houblonné léger fruité avec un côté Cascade et un effet pamplemousse marqué. Retrouve un léger côté biscuité en rétro. Palais est léger, sec avec un côté anglais au niveau des malts et grains - touche houblonnée bien fruitée plaisante avec un côté rappelant la feuille de kafir, menthe, agrumes sur de belles notes citronnée. Sur la fin je note un léger côté grains subtilement fumé et léger côté épicé de fin.
