[December 2021] Clear and golden with a bubbly white head, it's more like a bitter hopped lager than anything: light, dry, fizzy, crisp and bitter

330ml can. Gold, small white head, good retention and lacing. Aroma is subtle but fruity with grapefruit, melon and pineapple; ok. Taste is dry/astringent, with a hit of citrus and grass, then a dry and very bitter finish. Body and carbonation is good for a 4.2%. However, the balance between bittering and flavouring hops seems to be a bit off here. A bit all over the place.

330ml bottle. Poured a crystal clear golden colour with a short-lived frothy white head. The aroma is grainy malt, gluey, light toffee caramel, mineral, light floral hop. The flavour is moderate bitter, with a crisp, dry, light floral, woody hop bitter palate and a long bitter finish. Medium bodied with average carbonation.

10/5/2018. Tap at Newcastle Tap. Pours slightly hazy pale gold with a large frothy just off-white head. Aroma of hop, sweet malt, fruit and grass. Moderate sweetness and bitterness. Moderate body, thin slightly oily texture, soft carbonation. So so.
