A premium pale ale with lots of aroma, bitterness and hop flavour. Made with late "Galaxy" hops from Australia, then balanced with plenty of "Brewer's Gold" from Germany.

Cask-conditioned at the Van Dyck forum (JDW), Bristol 22/10/2011. deep gold with a slight off-white head. Tropical fruit and citrus aroma. Flavour had more fruit, some creamy malts and a hoppy, dry finish. Enjoyable.

Cask at the Greyhound (JDW), Maidenhead. Straw with a thin white head; attractive peachy aroma; crisp with some citrus and some light tropical fruit flavours; the a pleasant fruity finish with good underlying bitter hops.

Cask at Hamilton Hall, JDW, London. Pours clear, rich gold with a fine, white head. Has a bit of bread and tangy citrus on the nose. Light sweet flavor, nutty, with bits of toast, lime, sugar and wet grass. Light bodied with soft carbonation. Mild sweet finish, slightly sticky, with some tangy sweetness and ripe citrus. Alright.

Cask handpull at Whitehall Spoons. Clear gold lasting white head looks in cracking nick. Lime hoppy aroma. Great mouthfeel. Lots of hops. Really tasty beer. Pale malt is mutex but rest is really good. Another one Ken And I agree on. Good hoppy beer.
