The original New Zealand hop - Green Bullet - creates a crisp bitterness, light spice and piney aroma. The addition of the ultra modern Nectaron Hop oil brings forward juicy tropical fruit and citrus notes creating a perfect harmony between old and new.

Draught keg at the Clarendon, Royal Leamington Spa. Clear light golden with visible carbonation and a small foamy white head. Sweet, clean floral aroma, some grassy character and a touch of Berry. Sweetish and clean taste but not very engaging. Little bit of artificial sweetener on the finish. Heavy carbonation. It's fine, but doesn't draw me in. Pilsner by numbers although a good one.

Draft. A golden beer with a lazing beige head. The aroma has notes of straw, malt, and minerals. The flavor is sweet with notes of hops, spices, and minerals, leading to a bitter finish.

Third at Fierce Bar. Golden pour with a small white foamy head. Aroma and taste are grainy, malty with a touch of sweetness. Fruity notes pop up from time to time, but nothing consistent.

Can from Fierce Bar Abz. It pours clear golden - amber with a fluffy white head. The fresh, fragrant, leafy, pine, touch of spice, mellow malty sweetness and some stone fruit. The taste is crisp, dry, touch of grassy bitterness, waxy citrus peel, grapefruit, pithy lime, pomelo, peppery spice, straw, pine needles, grain and a touch of nuttiness. Finish is lingering bitter - dry with a twist of citrus. Average body and moderate, fluffy carbonation. Perhaps could a have been a touch crisper and cleaner to let the hops shine more, but it's enjoyable nonetheless.
