On tap at 65 Peel, pours a clear blonde with a small white head. Aroma reveals lots of lemongrass upfront, with subdued floral hops. Flavour is loaded on with bright lemongrass upfront, followed by citrusy, floral hops, and soft malt. Really like the lemongrass character here. Great stuff.

Lemony citrus. Clear gold with a decent white head. Lemongrass and a nice herbal note. Solid.

Tap at 65 Peel, Hong Kong. Poured a slightly hazy golden colour with a lasting frothy white head and some broken lace. The aroma is grainy malt, big spicy lemongrass. The flavour is spicy lemongrass with a light crisp, slightly herbal, floral hop bitter palate. Medium to light bodied with average to soft carbonation.

On tap at 65 Peel. Pours gold. Floral, touch skunky, lots of lemongrass in the flavour, little caramel. Not much in the way of the IPA, but a lemongrass beer is more interesting anyway.

On tap at 65 Peel. A bit hazy yellow with a small white head. Aroma and taste of citrus, lemongrass and some soap. The body was light. An ok one.

Poured from the tap. Slightly hazy pale yellow with white head. Citrus hops, lemongrass and mild resin. A little bit light on flavour like most session IPAs, but not as sessionable on the ABV. Not bad, but lots of better options available at this ABV.

Frischer Antrunk mit leichten Hopfennoten und einem sich schlagartig ausbreitendem Aroma von Zitronengras. Dies dominiert den Geschmack auch im leicht malzig angehauchtem Mittelteil. Der Hopfen verstärkt sich, bleibt aber im Hintergrund. Spannend. 8/10/7/11//10
