440ml can. Clear golden with a big white head. Aroma of grapefruit juice and peel, resinous, orange. Taste of fresh grapefruit juice, and peel, orange, resinous, assertive and lingering bitterness. Medium bodied. Nice riff on Jaipur, grapefruit is the overriding flavour and it works nicely, but does hide the hop flavour somewhat.

Can that I picked up from Beyond Beer, webshop, Hamburg, consumed in the company of Jude and Baz at Camping Leutasch, Austria, Sunday 17th August 2025 after a day in Telfs and Seefeld in Tirol. We had homemade burgers for tea they we're great, listening to Antony Szmierek, The Service Station at the End of the Universe. Pours hazy mid gold with a large white head, the trademark Jaipur touches are there but perhaps a little of that hoppy instancy is lost. This is altogether a little more different, a pithiness here from the addition of the pink grapefruit clearly that key difference. I like this, not necessarily better than the original but very good in its own way.

Can from Raynville Superstore. It pours clear straw yellow with a decent fluffy white head. The aroma is fresh, zingy, zesty, grapefruit leads the way, floral accents, rose jam, quite fragrant and crackery
The taste is crisp, firmly dry, pleasing bitterness which lingers throughout, fragrant, floral, pot pourri, zingy, zesty, bitter citrus peel, plenty of pink grapefruit and some peppery juniper with a drying finish. Medium body and moderate, fluffy carbonation. Crisp and crushable. Nice one.

On keg at Coach and Horses, Dronfield - Clear golden body, small white head. Seeing as grapefruit is the driving tang in the original, I can't say this would be much different with the addition of grapefruit. Not so much pine and resin? Yep, and a bit more malty. Still a decent one, but not an improvement on the OG.

Large foamy white head on a well carbonated pale golden coloured body.
Make, biscuit & cat piss aroma.
Medium bodied, foamy with a cloying back.
Biscuit, malt, grapefruit & pine tastes with a bitterly hopped finish.
It's Jaipur with a splash of grapefruit - Refreshing.

Keg at the 34th Ealing Beer Festival 2025, day one, 09/07/2025.
Almost clear golden orange with an off white head that retains well.
Nose is grass, hint of pink grapefruit, citric sherbets.
Taste comprises airy malts, papaya, mandarin, twist of pink grapefruit, grass.
Medium bodied, soft carbonation, semi drying close spiked with grassy hop bitterness.
Okay stuff but expected a little more.

Can. Mitchell’s Wines. It’s not far removed from the original as you’d imagine, but the addition does give a nicely juicy semi tart extra dimension. Think Grapefruit Sculpin and you’re almost there. Sank it double quick. Will be stocking up.
