(Bottle) Golden colour with big, frothy, white head. Fruity, hoppy nose with citrus, grapefruit, pineapple, resin and some grain. Fruity, hoppy taste with grapefruit, citrus, resin, tropical fruit, some grainy malt and a generous citric, slightly metallic bitterness in the finish. Light body, mainly dry. Generous hop character, that gets slightly metallic after while. A bit unbalanced with malt overpowered by the hops. Still, quite enjoyable.

Hazed pale golden color with a fine frothy white head. Quite mild aroma. Decent body and a fine carbonation. Good balance between sweetness and bitterness. Semi dry texture. Mild grapefruit hoppy, some pine and a fine malty back. Absolutely a decent nice ale at only 3,5%.
