An accolade to a long and frustrating day. With a generous amount of hops and a low ABV, what better way to put a smile back on your face? A light golden ale with a heavy hop bitterness and flavoured with a strong fruit and citrus aroma.

Cask at the Greyfriars, Reading. An amber pour with a ring of white head; fruity aroma; sharply bitter with an apricot and almond body; then a dry finish. Rather good.

Tap at Pikkulintu. Hazy orange color, medium-sized white head. Grassy nose, a bit rough. Medium-bodied. Grassy, fruity, grapefruit. Grapefruity aftertaste. Ok. Maybe not the freshiest sample.
