Part of a flight at the brewpub on 12th August 2025. Clear golden body, white crown. Piney, citrus notes in both the nose and taste, nice blend with a solid malty base. Easy drinking, citrus fruits come to the fore as it warms.

473mL can, pours a clear golden with a medium white head. Aroma brings out a mild, spicy, piney hop character upfront, backed with a crisp biscuity malt base. Flavour is crisp, with lots of spicy hops, plenty of mineraly notes, and a very dry biscuity malt base. Quite dry, bitter and mineraly on the finish, without a very identifying hop character. Competent and drinkable, but the hop character is not particularly invigorating.

473 ml can. Pours amber with moderate head. Aromas dank hops, pine, candied grapefruit and biscuity malts. Flavors of biscuity malts, bitter hops and subtle mashed fruit. A good hoppy pale ale.

Floral hops in aroma. Some floral in flavor but very dry, bitter grapefruit with some tea-like flavors as well.
