A well balanced light, golden, hoppy bitter. Grapefruit nose and citrus flavours give way to a mellow, slightly sweet after-taste. Complex malt character ensures it drinks well beyond its abv. Easy to drink and annoyingly moreish.

Cask at the Spring Equinox beer festival at the Rose & Crown, Sandhurst. Pale straw with a ring of white head; grapefruit aroma; surprisingly full bodied with a malty, citrus, taste; and a sharp grapefruit finish. Excellent body and flavour for 3.8%.
