Medium offwhite head. Hazy amber body. Deep tropical fruit and catnip aroma with orangey notes. Dry-bitter dandelion and chalk taste with tropical fruit notes. Mid-to-light body. Sharpish mouthfeel. Dryish mealy orangey aftertaste with resiny notes. Nice, but a bit lacking in body for all that bitterness. (0.33l bottle shared by Ole_R.)

Bottle from Utobeer. Clear gold with thick lasting white head. Needed to decant this in order to get rid of the carbonation. Belgian yeast and fruity aroma. It’s a pretty tasty beer. The lime is a little harsh I guess. Some soap but it’s pretty damn tasty and good hops on the finish too.

(Cask at Craft Beer Co, Clerkenwell, London, 21 April 2012) Reddish amber colour with foamy, beige head. Fruity, hoppy nose with grapefruit, citrus and red fruit. Fruity, malty taste with notes of red fruit, grapefruit, orange and a generous citric bitterness in the finish. Medium body, with balanced sweetness. Solid malt foundation, with a lovely hop character. Very nice.

Keg at CP&K. It pours cloudy orange, with a thin, foamy white head. The nose is leaf, dough, farmyard, spicy yeast and lots of citrus - orange, tangerine and mango. The taste is orange, mango, hay, straw, grass, dough, spice and tangy fruit, with a dry-citric finish. Medium body, fine carbonation and velvety mouth-feel. Brilliant balance and outstanding flavour. Absolutely delicious!
