500 ml bottle, will soon be available at Cardinal Pub & Bar, Stavanger. ABV is 5.0%. Crystal clear pale golden colour, thin white head. Beguiling aroma of floral and fruity hops, orange flowers and tropical fruits galore. Refreshing and distinctly hoppy flavour throughout, not sweet but has a hint of honey, notes of citrus and tropical fruits, a grapefruity and fairly sharp bitterness in the finish and aftertaste.

Cask at the George, Croydon. It pours clear golden with a thick white head. The nose is fresh, doughy, toasty, floral, perfumed and citrus peel. The taste is crisp, bitter, lemon, grapefruit, floral, straw and light soap with a dry finish. Medium body and fine carbonation. Balanced, tasty and crushable. Grade A golden.

Thanks Olivia for the bottle.
This was poured into a pint glass.
The appearance was a golden yellow with a one finger white foamy head that dissipated within about a minute. Light lacing intricates itself in and around the glass in a spider web fashion.
The smell had a light sweet earthy malt with some nice sweet citrus.
The taste was mildly sweet through a combination of the earthy maltiness and citrus.
On the palate, this one sat about a light on the body with a good sessionability about it. It came across slightly crisp on my tongue.
Overall, good beer, Iโd have it again.

Pours a clear and very light yellow color, topped with a fine white head. Very pleasant aroma, citrusy malts and fruits. The taste is a kick - very bittery with lots of bitterness in the aftertaste. Still very decent.

Nose is herbal, slight citrus and some floral tones. Taste is floral, leading to soft grains then an emerging dry hop finish with resin tones. Itโs a little over sweet giving a slight sickliness. reasonable example of the style.
