A great aroma and powerful upfront hoppy bitterness give way to an explosion of citrus and pine flavours. A full on hop attack not for the faint hearted!

Cask at the Victoria Iann, Rugby, 30/10/13. Clear golden with a thin off white head. Nose is cereals, citrus, light vegetal, peas - not in too much of an unpleasant way, just not very exciting. Taste comprises light orange, faint hops, citrus fruit, lemon sherbet. Medium bodied, fine carbonation, light grassy bitterness in the finish. Average GB.

Pale blond colour. Some fruity notes in the aroma and taste. Light, refreshing and fruity with a touch of dryness in the finish. A good thirst quencher.

GBBF Day 2. Light haze on this pale gold beer. Little white head. Light palate, slightly soft and semi dry. Smooth pale malts. Little floralness, light citrus. Honey - orange. Grapefruit and orange peel bring up the rear. Light dry finish. Quite a harsh grapefruit linger. Solid golden. Oh and the name made me smile!
