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 at home in my garden pub, The Fat Lads' Arms, from my brother as a birthday present. Yellow in the glass, as you would expect from the brewery. Spiky hops, good mouthfeel and a perfect accompaniment to James on the speaker. Great start to an extended Bank Holiday weekend.

Bjørnøy-Sandnes t/r med livgivende suppestasjon på Melkebaren! Andre fra venstre på planken: uklar blekgul med fint skum som varer lenge. Citrus og sommerblomster. Slank, velbalansert og forfriskende.

Tap. Hazy, yellow, bright appearance with a tick irregular white foam. Nose: mineral, grassy, a bit floral too. Mouth: super clean body, balanced resinous bitterness, citrus. Great one

Old rating - A 440ml can from Love Wine in Jersey. Pours a hazy pale yellow with a massive foamy white head. Aromas & tastes of citrus, grapefruit, passion fruit, biscuit & pine. Medium body. Dry sweet medium bitter finish. Very enjoyable APA

I like this one more than some of their higher rated IPAs. Simple and refreshing. Film: Women of the Night

Kurzrezension vom Vienna Kraft Bier Fest:
Im Glas hellgelb und kräftig trüb. Reiffruchtiger Duft nach Marille und exotischen Früchten. Der Antrunk kommt überaus kräftig rezent, frisch und fruchtig herb mit Noten von unreifen exotischen Früchten. Der Körper zeigt eine leichte Fülle mit kräftiger, feiner Rezenz, leichter Textur und guter Trockenheit. Geschmacklich und aromatisch nimmt man frische, fruchtig-herbe und grasige bis harzige Noten wahr.
