Thank you for sharing! Sampled draft @ Borefts 2017. Day 1. Hazy orange, creamy white head. Served far too cold. Mellow floral hop, vaguely fruity nose. Taste is doughy, low fizzy, rather empty grains,… Too cold and fizzy about so-so.

Sampled from tap at Borefts 2017. Hazy, golden amber with a white head. Sweetish, fruity-grassy and slightly resiny aroma of mango, peach and some pine. Quite sweet, moderately bitter, fruity-resiny and slightly grassy taste of peach, mango, orange and some pine, followed by a short, medium bitter, resiny and dry finish. Medium to full body, creamy mouthfeel, soft carbonation. Nice!

On tap at Borefts Beer Festival, Friday 22nd September 2017. Pours gold with a a white head, light haze. Good fruity hops, lovely beer and quite a contrast to the Jan and Charlotte which appears quite brutal alongside this. A7 A4 T7 P4 Ov14 3.6
