A golden coloured ale, with a lovely citrusy grapefruit nose, a hoppy citrus taste followed by a similar finish.

Hand-pulled pint at The Pheasant Inn, Wellington Shropshire on 21st August 2021. Pale golden body, clean and clear; weak, but lasting white head. Plenty of Nelson Sauvin used in this; grapefruit front to both the aroma and taste, tempered with some maltiness for balance. Fairly dry feel overall.

Pours a clear golden colour with a small loose white head that quickly disappeared. Aroma is citrus and grassy hops. A citrus and grassy hop bitter flavour with some underlying grainy malts and an astringent bitterness in a lingering finish. OK.

On tap at Euston Tap London. Clear gold colour lasting white head. Slightly harsh on the finish. Plenty of hoppy fruit flavours. A little metallic harshness. Yes really quite harsh. Ok though. Challenging.

Slightly opalescent golden colour, moderate sized creamy off-white head; aroma of grapefruit, peach, some grape, and biscuit notes; taste is the same with significant bitterness; easy to drink and refreshing
