Bottle pour into shaker pint glass from Friar Tuck’s. Appearance is golden orange with nice sparkle, 2 finger-width white foamy head, massive sudsy lacing. Aroma is floral and citrus with malt base. Taste is similar to aroma along with grapefruit. Palate is light bodied with thin texture, soft carbonation and finish like the taste. Overall, a light, highly sessionable IPA with a good amount of flavor.

Bottle sample at a fruit IPA tasting at the Beer & Beyond shop. Golden with a white head. Aroma of slightly stale citric hops and a bit of lemon. Flavor is quite dry, with some bitter citric and piney hops, slightly stale, and some lemon.

12 ounce bottle thanks to Dana. Pours a clear copper color with a medium white head. A grassy citrus nose. The flavor is very good, citrus, even some bitterness, sweet biscuit honey malt base. Clean and flavorful. Good.

Draft pour pint at Frankies pizza. Clear golden pour with a thin, patchy head. Orange, and citrus hop aroma. Flavor is moderate bitter citrus hops, with a cool melon like finish. Melon quality makes this interesting. Flavorful, refreshing and tasty. Good stuff.

Tap at Roundhouse Wanchai. Clear golden pour with thin thin white head. Aroma is mild pine citrus hops with some floral sweetness. Taste is crisp slightly bitter lemon peel hops. Not a bad sunshine-y beer.

Tap at Hair of the Dog, Bangkok. Poured a clear straw colour with a thin white head. The aroma is citrus, mineral, grassy hop. The flavour is moderate bitter with a light, crisp, weedy hop bitter palate. Medium bodied with average carbonation.

12 oz bottle. Poured a golden color with a small white head. Aroma was lots of lemon juice, peel, zest notes. Really citrus forward. Flavor was refreshing, light IPA notes, almost radler like. Refreshing.

Bottle. A- Pine, dank, biscuits, tangerines. A- Orange color, hazy liquid, white head. T- Pine, bitter, caramel, bready, subtle citrus. P- Medium body, average texture, average carbonation, slightly bitter finish. O- A lot more caramel bread than bitterness in here. Especially for a session I expected it to be light and maybe a tad fruity. In fact, it was quite bready and almost just tasted like a slightly old regular ipa. Not bad but not what I want.
