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.

Sampled at Billies craftbeerfest 2017. Thnx for sharing, everyone ! Don't mind my visual info to much, as lighting was really terrible. Pours unclear yellow, small white head. Smell is creamy, wheat, bit spices. Taste is sharp, bit bitter, lemonzest. Fresh, bit too perfumed. High carbo, thin body.

APA from this acclaimed English craft brewery, first one to sample at Billie's Craft Beer Fest. Thick, creamy, snow-white, lacing head, hazy straw blonde-yellowish colour. Aroma of fresh orange peel, grapefruit, pink peppercorns, lime juice, dough. Fruity onset, quite vivid, orange freshness, light starfruit and lychee notes, passionfruit-like sourish accent, fizzy carbo, supple and bit oily mouthfeel; 'white bready' malt core, bit sweetish, long grapefruity hop finish, mild but aromatic, 'clean' (not at all dank) and very elegant. Nice, but could perhaps have been a tad maltier for this style?
