Hazy and pale. Lots of hops, fairly bitter, light citrus aromatics.Almost too much bitterness, but of course that’s not a thing. Still.

On tap at Dageraad. Pours clear blonde with a white head. Soapy, grassy hops on the nose. Flavour has pretty limp biscuit malts and long bitter finish. Hops are grassy, but not much else. Not a huge fan.
