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 and touch of forest pine. Bitter, but balanced.

[33cl can from Lidl, Crowthorne.] A bright pale amber pour with a smattering of white froth; aroma of malt and citrus; biscuity malt taste with some sweet lemony citrus, then some sour grains; and a chewy finish with more malts and some sharply bitter lemon zest. A pleasant sippa!

330ml can from a local Lidl; BBE September 2023. Drank at home on 24th November 2022. Clean golden body, white head. Light aroma held both citrus and piney notes, the taste also a combination of citrusy and piney hops on a bed of semi-sweet malty goodness. --- Beer aliased from original tick of Ripper on 07 Feb 2019 at 10:21 - Score: Appearance - 6 | Aroma - 6 | Flavor - 7 | Texture - 6 | Overall - 7. Original review text: 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.

Can from Lidl Supermarket, Salford. Slightly golden, slightly deeper golden coloured ale with a thin head and a light carbonation. Slightly robust pale ale including a maltiness, also with a bitterness, good hoppiness, a dryness, but quite crisp tasting too.

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).
