(Draught at King's Arms, Bethnal Green, London, 25 May 2018) Golden colour with foamy, white head. Fruity nose with notes of citrus, grapefruit, tropical fruit and biscuits. Malty, hoppy taste with citrus, tropical fruit, biscuits, dough, grass and a balanced citric/grassy bitterness. Light body, with a slight sweetness. On the light side, but tasty and refreshing. quite nice.

Bottle that Jim shared - cheers! Hazy pale gold with a white head and a light fizz. Tropical fruit aroma, then a grapefruit and lemon flavour with a little pine and an assertive bitterness to balance the sticky sweet resins. Pretty decent, but I'm a bit bored of APAs these days.

Gusher of a white frothy head that struggled to contain in the glass. It sat on a Hazy lemon coloured, highly carbonated body. Bitter, hoppy, fruity aroma. Medium bodied. So sharp on the palate - feels like pins & needles!. Very crisp. Dry & clean on the back. Almost like champagne. Grassy, hoppy, fresh, outdoors, floral tastes with a long bitter hoppy finish. Excellent.

Leeds Beer Festival 2016. Clear yellow-blonde coloured ale. Hopped with a sugary sweetness, its tropical fruits eventually show through in both aroma and taste.

Slightly hazy golden beer with a thick white head. Floral, grassy aroma of tropical fruit and hops. Flavour has a really grassy quality too. A dry, tangy flavour. Bitter grapefruit, hops. I should have chilled it a bit longer. Session beer always feels like a bit of a backhanded compliment to me but this really fits the bill. Loads of flavour and yet only 3.8%. Lovely beer.

Draft at IMBC 2015. No specific hops are mentioned. Clear golden color, medium white head. Aroma of mixed earthy citrus and tropical fruit. Taste is dank fruit, almost sweaty, nicely balanced. Solid.
