Here's hoping news of Hawkers' problems means they can be faced, consolidated & moved on from. Can. Just misted pale amber with a small white head. Aroma of kumquat, peach, old lime, a little pine , mildly funky crackers. But then grapefruit really charges through in the taste - overwhelming the malt really - and there's a spicy, woody feel to the firm bitterness. Most interesting of the 3 but probably shaded by the Thiolised one.
