Wonderful, refreshing zesty aromas top off a pale, light biscuity body. Sweetness and bitterness combine in a hugely satisfying session beer.

500ml bottle. Clear golden colour with huge, frothy, fully lasting, moderately lacing, white head. Not overly intense citrusy hop aroma, with hints of lemon, lemon zest, orange zest. Taste is minimally sweet malty, fresh fruity notes of lemon, orange, lemon zest; slightly bitter hoppy finish, light body. Really good summer session beer.

Cask at Craft Beer Co, London on 14th July 2012. Gold with white thin head of foam. Richly hoppy aroma. Exquisite hoppy blend in-mouth: grass and grapefruit are intense. Rich hoppy aftertaste with strong peanut nuttiness. Superb. Could stay on this all night.

Cask, gravity Banbury Beer Festival10.05.12 Pours light gold in colour with huge white head, crisp, bitter and really dry. Hops are glorious, furry hoppiness in the mouth. Glen recommended this and suggested that it could be his beer of the festival, personally I think that my beer of the festival was going to be a cider Tumpy Ground, however this was very good.

Cask at The Harp, London. Pours clear yellow with a fine white froth. Gorgeous zesty citrus with doughy biscuits, light grass and straw. Flavor follows perfectly and with superb balance. Moderately sweet with toasty hay, biscuits, crisp straw and lemon. Light bodied with fine carbonation. Great condition. Light sticky hops on the finish, light sweetness, hints of tangy citrus, more biscuits, straw, light grass and hay. Excellent golden ale.
