(On tap) Hazy golden with small white head. Great aroma - grapes, pine, citrus. Medium body with big soft mouthfilling carbonation. Nice biscuity light toffee malt provides a great taste backbone. The start has some tropical fruit juice flavours. They fairly quickly get replaced by sweetness and then really good hoppy bitterness. The high alcohol is apparent but nicely so - giving bite and extra apparent sweetness. Great beer.

Bottle sample at a tasting at Lior D's place. Thanks Lior D. Golden. Skunky fruity hops, some sweetish malt, graininess, bitter finish.

Bottle, bb 4/18. Chur branded for Oz. Just hazy gold with an inch of white head. Aroma o slightly honeyed hay with lots of citrus - mandarin and grapefruit. Tenor register, not so zesty. Some hash like mango there too. Sweet to very sweet with biscuit, honey, hay and dripping loads of citrus fruit. Bitterness is on the low side of what you'd expect for this sort of thing and doesn't really do more than slightly clip the flavors for a finish. But they're lovely.

Chur-labelled version. Can. Another very murky one: dirty river pale brown with a white head. Aroma of peach, bracken, old lemons, Dubbin. Moderately sour, soft fruit-on-the-turn acidity. Gently bready with well integrated fruit and refreshing tart finish.
