Keg from the Bison Beer kiosk at the Level One street food venue in Worthing. Cloudy gold with a white head. Pineapple to the fore with lots of fresh leafy hops. There's a touch of pink grapefruit behind. Maybe a tad thin, but that just serves to make it more refreshing. Perfect for a warm lunchtime whilst overlooking the sea - which by happy coincidence matched when and where I was at the time!

Keg @ Tap and Can. Pours hazed golden yellow, small white head. Aroma of tropical citrus, grapefruit, lemon. Taste continues along similar lines, pineapple suggestions alongside nice tropical citrus, good light-ish drinkability. Nice.

On tap at Bison Beer, North Laine. Shared with Finn. A covering white head that laced quite well. Unclear grey-golden body. Moderate hop fruity smell of pineapple and ripe citrus. Mid-sweet pineapple flavours added by a citrus twist. Ends with smooth fruity bitterness. Satisfying. (Brighton 17.10.2019).
