Keg at Hanging Bat. Pours hazy amber-orange, thin white head that goes quickly. Aromas are light orange, pine. Taste has some sweetness, light bitterness. Texture is thin, quite low carbonation. Finishes on a mineral note. OK, but nothing special.

Bottled 500ml (AbM)
Clear amber color, small off-white head. Sweet tropical fruity, pineapple aroma with piney notes. Light to medium-bodied. Quite sweet fruity, NZ hops-like exotic flavor. Can’t trace honey itself, but it is quite sweet, sweeter than just normal yeast-hops-malts-combo would do. Lingering piney bitterness in the finish. Good balance.

Bottle from Jacks, Goring-on-Thames, Oxon, Tuesday 21st January 2014 Pours amber touch hazy, with white head, good hoppy nose. Wonderfully drinkable beer, sweet but not so much, hoppy but I am not getting so much honey. Nice, streaky hoppiness. A7 A4 T7 P4 Ov13 3.5

Bottle. A clear, dark golden beer topped by a small, beige head. Mostly piney aroma, with some caramel maltyness and a touch of grapefruit. Not much honey detected, which is just as good. Not much in the flavor either, where the bitterness and grapefruit does most of the work. It’s full-bodied and with a soft carbonation level, pretty dry on the palate. Mostly bitter finish. Well, a decent one, but nothing extraordinary going on. 140118
