This delightfully punchy westie uses a trio of Citra, Columbus & Idaho 7. The aroma is like walking into a classic sweet shop with an array of hard-boiled sweets tickling your nostrils. The taste, no different. A sherbert fizz hits your tongue and is rounded off with a dank dose of blood orange to finish

440ml can @ Belgian Beer Geeks Autumn Gathering 2025. Misty golden yellow pour, small white head. Soothing exotic character, some piney citrus, grapefruit and an underlying malt sweetness. Lovely.

Can from Hop Shop Aberdeen. Hazy golden body with a thin off-white head. Low carbonation. Faint lacing. Aroma of orange and peach. Flavour of Turkish delight, bubblegum and stone fruit. Medium body with a smooth mouthfeel. Soft fizz. This reminds me of prime Sierra Nevada pale ale.
