Bottle at Mum and Dads, from Callans Dundalk, 25/12/14. Lightly hazed golden blonde with a good sized off white cap that soon collapses to spotting. Nose is light citric rinds, bread dough, grass, hint of peach. Taste comprises melon, freshly cut grass, vanilla, faint citrus notes. Medium bodied, spritzy carbonation - a little over cooked for my liking, semi drying close with subtle grassy hop bitterness. Inoffensive but equally forgettable.

Bottle from Bradley’s, Cork [071214]
Light yellow orange, soft haze, fizzy frothy white head that dissipates
Aroma of fruity pale malts, soft sweet pineapple, dab of sweet orange, some red berry, interesting fruit aroma
Taste of soft fruity malts, light bitter hops, soft sweet pineapple, orange, red berry, bit herbal. Delicate flavours. Unusual fruits. Soft earthy weedy hops, bit mineraly. Aroma bit better than taste.
Palate - Medium carb, medium light body, bit fizzy, soft sweet. Finish of soft fruits, more of that earthy hop in the finish
Overall - Like the concept. Interesting to try a beer made with 100% Irish hops.

Bottle. Hazy lemon gold with a thin head head. Wet hay aroma. Flavour is grainy citrus, cabbage? Herbs on the finish with a lemon background.

@ Franciscan Well, Cork. Golden colour. Aroma of elderflower, berries and vague herbs. Soft, fruity palate has more blackcurrant notes. Not much hop, but it’s pretty refreshing and has a nice character.
