American style pale ale. A juicy citrus fruit aroma leads to a full on grapefruit flavour that is rounded off with a bitter and refreshing finish.

Il gusto al naso viene attratto dal luppolo. La finezza olfattiva è elevata e il modo in cui permane è sufficiente. Il manto birroso superiore è caratterizzato da una schiuma dalla buona tenuta. La grandezza delle bollicine è medio-fine. Il liquido è di consistenza limpida. Il colore è giallo paglierino. Il corpo è strutturato. L'amaro è intenso. La forza gustativa è elevata e la durata è buona. Il gusto è piacevole. Le sensazioni boccali finali risultano luppolate. Il retrogusto è intenso. L'aroma in bocca porta i segni di miele, frutta secca, agrumi, pompelmo, ananas, arancia amara, spezie, erbaceo, pepe, mandarino, mango e frutta tropicale.

My penultimate beer of my first day of a few in Edinburgh. That's beers and days! I've had a number of sessions hoppy brews today and this one was the best - very easy and pleasant textured.

Bottled@Nolia Beer Fest 2017. Yellowish golden colour with a small white head. Aroma is citrus, some toffee and mild herbal and grassy notes. Flavour is fruity, some crisp maltiness as well as some mild floral notes. Quite typical golden ale.
