Bottle from MediaCityUK [13114]
Orange amber, slight haze, thin white head slight lacing
Nose of soft citrus zest, bitter orange, some fruity light caramel, dull lemon zest.
Taste of bitter zest, more bitter than fruit, soft caramel malts, fairly yeasty which knock out the hops a bit, some earthy grassy hop, not that fruity
Palate - Soft carb, medium body. Finish as bit dry, over bitter zest in the linger with some bitter yeast
Overall - Not the best example of an Amariilo hop beer, but OK. Bit over yeasty - not helped that there was a lot of sediment at the bottle of the bottle
