Review based on the BJCP2015 guidelines (style 18B). Bottle 33 cl - Batch unknown (BBF 07/11/19). AROMA: medium hop aroma with a slight floral note. faint phenolic background (slightly plastic). low malty background with a slight sweetness. APPEARANCE: gold color and clear. medium-large ivory head with good retention. lace formation. TASTE: medium-low to low hop flavor (slightly green), followed by an almost neutral malt background (slightly sweet). medium to medium-high bitterness with a dry and bitter finish. PALATE: medium-light body with medium-high carbonation. OVERALL: a pale ale with ok hop presence, some odd aromas and nothing extraordinary.

From tap at Cerveceria Boulevard in Irún, Spain, 15.07.17. Cloudy pale orange. Dense and persistent off-white head and lacing. Aroma of dry hopping, fresh grass, mandarins and apricots. Wonderful and lingering taste of tropical fruits, mandarins, apricots, biscuits and pale malt. Superb!

Bottle shared at the 2015 edition of the chriso Pre-GBBF tasting - London. Cheers! Pours hazy gold with a foamy, white head. Grainy aroma, with touches of hay and citrus rind. Medium sweet flavour with more pale grains, bitter rind and grass. Medium bodied with average carbonation. Dusty hops in the finish, some leaves, bread crust. So so.

Ambar turbia, de espuma superabundante, y mucha y fina burbuja. aroma interesante, malteado y floral. En boca entra bien con fin o gas y cuerpo moderado, y un sabor tostado equilibrado con amargor creciente y notas florales y especiadas. Final bien amargo. Bastante buena.
