Nice stuff. Pleasant sourness but there’s a leafy hop element too. Nice!

Keg @ Drink? Hebden Bridge. Hazy golden with a thin head. Sour but palatably so, with a small citric finish that lingers with hints of grainy malts.

On keg at the Stockbridge Tap. Appearance - golden and hazy. Nose - pineapple and lime. Some apricot. Taste - big tropical and citrus notes the finish is all le. Palate - light bodied with a tangy texture. The finish is long dry and tangy. Overall - lovely, the sourness seems to extend the bitterness. Beer of the day!

Hazy golden beer. Sour, citrus aroma. Crisp and refreshing, even a hint of caramel to take the edge off. Not huge on sours but I rather like this one.

Can from The Bottle Shop London and drunk at home. Hazy orange gold colour. Thin off white head. Yes a definite citrus sour aroma. In the mouth, it is sour but maybe not as lactic as some English sours. Plenty of sour orange on this. Tasty enough. Bit of a one trick pony, but decent enough .
