A hop bomb without the booze. A beer that loves to please. Delivering flavour in abundance, but not too much to have a decent session. Grapefruit, fresh citrus

Half-pint, on tap at the brewhouse. Shared with Finn. Clear amber coloured body, creamy beige head, crocheted lacing. Moderate canned fruity aromas. Citrus flavours with a basement touch. Ends mid-dry fruity with a bitter bite. Fair enough. (Brighton 17.10.2019).

Half-pint, on-tap (keg) on 29th Jan 2019; Aeronaut, Acton. White crown on a clear light golden body. Hoppy little number with plenty of piney and citrusy bitterness throughout. Much preferred this to their 'Source' which I had side-by-side.
