Cask@Charlies Bar, CPH 3.5.2013 Clear golden-amber color, decent white head. Citrus and honey in the nose. Nice Citra nose. Light bodied. Wood, citrus. Good session beer, perhaps too watery for my liking. But good Crouch Valley standard.

Keg @ Bow Bar, Edinburgh [280913]
Golden blonde, crystal clear, thin white head
Aroma - Quite strong citrus grapefruit hops, fresh grapefruit pith, touch of gooseberry, soft sweet malts
Taste as aroma, fresh citrus grapefruit, nice zingy bitter zest, good soft sweet light pale malt background, excellent flavour
Palate - Light body bit quite oily, good bittersweet balance, nice bitter citrus zest counterbalanced by the soft sweet malt. Finish of soft bitter zest.
Overall - Excellent light golden ale, good showcase for the Citra hop in a session beer

Golden in colour, persistent head. Strong aroma of lime and lemonade, as expected. Refreshing taste. OK ale if you’re more fond of lemonade and lime juice than beer.

Cask@Charlies Bar, Copenhagen - pours gold/amber with a small white head. Fruity citrus aroma and taste with intense lemon and orange peel zest on the palate, sweet caramel biscuity malt, some grass/pine. Extremely easy drinking sessioner this. Lovely.

Hazy golden with a lasting white head. Fruity aroma with lots of citrus, some grassy and herbal notes. Sweetish fruity flavour with lots of citrus. The usual, absolutely perfect refreshing CV mouthfeel
