On tap at the brewery Maldon Boston. Turbid pale gold colour lasting white head. Good tropical fruit flavour. Too fizzy. The harsh carbonation gets you in the end . Lovely fruit. Too much carbonic acid. Harsh.

Draught at the brewery, 7/9/16.
Copper-orange-golden body shows a high clarity and small, off-white head that recedes quickly to ring.
An undercurrent of green, dank, spiciness runs through rather easygoing citrus notes of orange juice, lime and lemon. A fair amount of maltiness is felt as well, balancing things nicely and adding notes of honey and very light caramel. More subtle notes continue on the finish; lime zest, tangerine, leafy, green hop spiciness and melon with no alcohol or flaw.
Ample body provided by malty and lightly dextrinous notes show off the honey-caramel character that dries out significantly on the finish due both hop and a light, pleasing graininess. Lime, orange, strawberry and tons of green, spicy, dank character linger with a moderate bitterness that keeps things crisp and drinkable without becoming fatiguing. Maybe a touch too much maltiness builds up eventually, but it’s nothing major.
