440ml can from Left Field Beer, Solihull and shared in Kuala Lumpur. Poured a murky light yellow golden colour with a thin broken white head. The aroma is piney, grassy, resin. The flavour is moderate bitter, with a smooth, fresh, grassy, herbal, hop bitter palate and a lingering bitter finish. Medium bodied with average to soft carbonation.

Can. Hazy orange gold beer, small bubbly pale cream colour head. Palate is mildly dry with good fine minerally carbonation. Smooth light pale malts, abundant creamy sweetness. A light piney intro into the Citra hops. Rich ripeish orange with undertones of mandarin and something vaguely mango tropical. Very soft skunk and light hop spice precedes a hop fruity juicy finish. Nice dipa. I've had better Citra solo hop DIPAs for sure but, this one is rich and creamy and very drinkable.
