Can. Hazy gold beer, good bubbly pale cream colour head. Airy palate, decent fine minerally carbonation. Light smooth pale malts, a light creamy sweetness. Light pine. Some boxy bitterness, mild peel. Bright citrus, a sunny lemon tinted orange and mandarin. Touch of modern Simcoe mildly ripe pineapple. Mild bitterness on the light and semi dry finish. Hop wise, a very nice IPA, mouthfeel wise, feels a tad thin. Like the bitterness.

Keg at Heidrun HW, 10/06/21. Lightly hazed golden with a decent off white cap. Nose is grassy, ripe citric flesh, pine needle, grapefruit, stoned fruit esters. Taste comprises raw pineapple, grass, citric tinged straw, light herb, pinch of hop spice, guava, pine needle, grapefruit zest. Medium bodied, fine carbonation, semi drying close spiked with juicy to light grassy hop bitterness. Solid IPA ... has a raw and bitter edge to it.

Tap at The Hive, Crowthorne, 22nd May 2021. Pours a hazy orange. Aroma is candy, citrus, pith and orange. Taste is on the sweet side, sticky, soft, tropical fruit and citrus. Pretty good, but a little sweet
