Bottle 330ml ( AbM) Hazy orange color, small off-white head, lace. Aroma has citrus, watermelon, fruity yeastyness. Light-bodied. Flavor has evident citrus from Citra. A bit messy as beer has quite a lot of yeast. Watery and a bit too simple overall.

Bottle 330ml (AbM)
Golden-copper color, small but steady white head. Aroma has only light maltyness and fruity alcoholic kick. Medium-bodied. Sweet, a bit candy-like. Has apples, strawberry. Lowish bitterness. Light alcohol. Somewhat interesting as not many of these (in craft scene) from England.
