Level 6 bottleshare. Thanks to LKS. A light haze on this gold beer, tiny pale cream colour head. Smooth palate, mildly dry, decent fine carbonation. Light malts, a light dry creamy sweetness. A mild funk on a fairly bright citrus background. Dry and slightly spicy finish. Nice enough.

Light bodied with spritzy, massaging carbonation. Lightly tart, quenching finish, some woody dryness. Not bad overall.

Taster at brewery. Hazy yellow pour, ring of white head. Fruity aroma, citrus, tropical. Taste is a kiss of juicy citrus, light on the palate, full in the mouth. Light citrus zesty notes at the finish. Soft, crushable.

Draught at Blackback Pub, 4/7/22. Heavily hazy, bronze-brass-maize with a small, white head showing low retention. Nose is soft, juicy, with moderate pine but no big resin. Clean yeast with moderate fruitiness and a strong helping of base malts adding honey and biscuit. Light touch of alcohol, no flaw noted. Soft and juicy with an almost cherry-like note compliments of the Galaxy. Full-on OJ and grapefruit from the Citra with fun minerality, hints of earth and light-to-moderate pine. Malty with great attenuation. Really something in here for everyone. Malty yet dry, juicy yet with ample pine and bitterness.
