A massive Citra hop bouquet of peach and pine. Robust grapefruit bitterness. A heavy hitter for its strength.

Excellent example of a Citra single-hopped pale ale. Soft. Grapefruit. No ott tw nonsense. No crystal. Slammer.

Cask @ The Grove, Huddersfield. Clear golden in colour with a very thin head. Hoppy, a tad thin tasting, but crisp in the palate.

Cask at Number22 Darlington. Clear golden amber colour, foam white head leaving some lacing and lemon & orangey citrus hop aroma. Taste is sweetish biscuity malt with tangy orange citrus bitterness. Light bodied, medium carbonation, dry bitter finish. Light but quite drinkable.

On cask at Arkwright Arms, Chesterfield - A bit of a hazy yellow body, solid white head, lacing all the way through. A heavy lemon-cum-grapefruit nose, it carries into the taste too, with a creamy body. It is a good one, and nice as it was with the warm weather outside.
