Bottle (6.3% ABV) from The Beerhive. Hazy golden body with a thick off-white head. Steady carbonation. Faint lacing. Aroma of grapefruit, lime cordial and herbs. Flavour of pine needles, orange, grass and grapefruit. Thin to medium body with a light, oily texture. Soft fizz. Crisp and juicy. Yet another cracker from Twisted Barrel. Please keep sending your beers to Edinburgh!

Bottle picked up at Cotteridge Wines, Cotteridge, Birmingham Saturday 5th March 2016 consumed at home Sunday 6th March 2016 Pours gold edging towards orange with a white head, it’s a little hazi fantazi. A touch of spice on the nose with sweet citrus notes also, these then present themselves in the flavour department, with orange and a little jiffy lemon. Soft in the mouth, fruity throughout, good beer. A7 A4 T7 P3 Ov14 3.5
