Can from Fresh Field Market Croydon and drunk on a train golden orange colour lasting white head.. tangerine grapefruit pithy flavour and aroma. Rather likeable and drinkable. For me. Citrus. Acidity bitterness. Like drinking citrus fruit juice. Light bitterness. Rather good I thought. Really drinkable.

Keg at Draft House, Seething, 15/08/18. Lightly hazed golden orange with a well presented off white head. Nose is orange pith, grassy, melon, hint of grapefruit, toasted bread. Taste comprises orange peel, toasted grains, crackers, lemon drizzle, light pine, airy malts, hint of mango. Medium bodied, fine carbonation, semi drying close with balanced hop bitterness. Ok easy drinking IPA.

Can @ home. Unclear pale yellow color, medium to full sized white head. Aroma is lightly malts, hops, lightly citrussy fruitpeel. Flavor is malts, hops, very fruity and the citrussy fruitpeel notes are gone - fortunately. Flavor is very good indeed. Decent to medium body and carbonation. Quite nice. 7-3-8-4-16.

Can. Hazy gold beer, small pale cream colour head. Fairly dry palate, a tad thin to, modest fine carbonation. Reasonably smooth malts, mild sweetness. Piney hop kick off. Mild pithy bitterness. Smooth citrus on the back end and a traсe of tropical fruits. Light finish leaves a mild spicy linger. Curiously unsatisfying but still not bad.

Can. Wine Rack, Sharrow, Sheffield. Unclear, medium gold. Skim and ring of lacing, white head. Nose has some pine needle and studded orange. Sweet, banana bread grain. A bit oaty and milky. Taste has a soft, spicy, demerara like sweetness. Moderate, piny bitterness. Medium body. A bit sticky. Soft carbonation. Piny bitterness to finish. It’s on the verge of two different styles and doesn’t nail either.
