Can shared in London - cheers! Pours clear orange-gold with a creamy, white head. Vibrant grapefruit in the nose, big zest, not much else. Light-medium sweet flavour with more graoefruit, some rindy bitterness, pale bread, a little grain. Medium bodied with fine to average carbonation. Strong zesty finish. Fun stuff.

Black with massive creamy head. Aroma and flavour are very intense with roasted peanuts, caramel and biscuits. Not too sticky or cloying. Pleasant bitter finish.

Black beer, thin head. Nutty chocolate aroma. Flavour isn’t really that nutty, which suits me. Rich, chocolate, creamy, malty, a dash of coffee. This is smooth and very tasty.

Draft at the source. Pours a murky, deep gold with a finger of foam. Light banana bread nose, some clove. Body was super watery, thin....grapefruit pith. Quick finish missing the all important body of a hefe. Nah, this one needs a lot of work. --- Beer merged from original tick of Grapefruit Hefe on 12 Aug 2017 at 22:18 - Score: 5.

2018 February can release. Big pineapple, dank nose with lingering citrus peel and catpiss. Crisp and clean, light bodied and easy drinking. More dank and pineapple. Minimal hopburn. Big improvement over the first batch last year. Summer 2017 rating: Tap at the source. Pours a slightly cloudy orange with 2 finger of soapy head. Piney, clear resinous, citrus pith. Quite bitter on the palate. Doesn’t really come together that well, but drinkable. --- Beer merged from original tick of Look At These Sticks on 12 Aug 2017 at 22:25 - Score: 7. Original review text: Piney, clear resinous, citrus pith. Quite bitter on the palate. Nice enough.

Tap at the source. Pours a deep brown to black with a small beige head. Lots of dark chocolate, some lactose. Sweet and roasty. Very latte-like but couldn’t find any orange. Nice stout though. --- Beer merged from original tick of Orange Mocha Frappuccino on 12 Aug 2017 at 22:27 - Score: 7. Original review text: Lots of dark chocolate, some lactose. Sweet and roasty.
