A blonde beer packed full of exotic & bold flavours! Brewed with rye malt, and hopped with Sorachi Ace hops, then conditioned with fresh lemongrass & lime.

On cask at the Haymarket. Appearance - golden with a nice head. Nose - loads of citrus coming through and lemongrass definitely distinguishable Taste - more of the same. Palate - light to medium bodied with a creamy texture and a long dry finish. Overall - quirky but enjoyable.

Cask at The Black Friar. Pours amber with a beige head. Aroma is light treacle and citrus. Med body. Flavor is very citrus - like kaffir lime leaves - mild, but in your face. Missing the rye. It is a really tasty ale, and makes a nice break.

33cl bottle from M&S Camberley. Golden amber with a billowing cream head; rye aroma; off-sweet with a grainy body and definite lemongrass kick; and some lime to finish. Unusual, well balanced and very drinkable.
