An immense stone fruit and zesty citrus hit from the hops working in harmony with the soft, oat-laden malt body and fruity floral yeast esters finishing with a bright bitter snap.

On tap at The Rusty Bucket, Eltham. Lots of citrus in the aroma, splash of passionfruit, peach. Similar approach in the flavour. Zesty citrusy mouthfeel. Lightly hoppy finish.

Tap at The Bay Hop, Conwy Bay. Opaque-hazy dark gold. Foamy white head. Aroma is big and fruity. Slightly sugary. Flavourwise it has sweet fruit with a stone fruit bitter edge and unintrusive resin. Medium bodied. Oily. Soft carbonation. Long dry slightly astringent finish. Nice.

Cask @ Tap and Can. Misty milky gold complexion, white head. Soothing lilty exotic profile, set against a moderately light soft cask body.. nicely balanced, smooth tropical hop character. Decent.

Fortsatt godt lesbare og relativt pålitelige notater fra GBBF-23. Fra keg og delt med Steven: uklar strågul med fint skum som varer. Tropiske frukter, grapefrukt, et delikat streif av urter og et granskudd eller to.
