Hazy amber beer, tidy white head. Palate is fairly neutral. Minerals. Mild fruit salad sweets and mango. Fair bit of bitterness. Finishes minerally. Bitter aftertaste. The more aggressive side of Galaxy hops - perhaps a bit too much so!

Cloudy amber beer, tidy off white head. Light palate, dry. A little soft malt, trace of caramel. Mild orange hops with a whisper of pine. Dry finish. Mild bitter linger. Okay but a bit dry and lacking hop fruit.

Keg at The Longroom, Smithfield, London. This was the new version. An amber/golden coloured pour with a thin white head on top. Hoppy, grapefruit aroma. Tastes hoppy, grapefruit, citrus fruit, slightly dry. Pretty good.

Cask at the brewery tap room, London. Pours cloudy, red-gold with a light, white film. Lots of fresh orange on the nose. Light to medium sweet flavor with ripe orange, leaves, light earth, grass and grainy bread. Light to medium bodied with fine carbonation. Moderately sweet finish with some juicy, ripe citrus, melon, pine and bread. Very nice stuff.

Bottle from Oddbins, Blackheath - Gold fuzzy pour with a lively white head, and light in body. Light citrus hops, grassy, pine and biscuit malt character. Bitter finish. Not bad.

Bottle at Chriso tasting 20/01/2013. I hate plays on the word hops in beer names. Onion skin colour, thin white head. English yeast aroma. Squishy hope fruit aroma. Mid low carbonation. Chalky finish. Firm bitter finish.

Bottle at Chriso Snow Tasting, thanks to Chris, 20/01/13. Hazed mid amber with a thin white head that clears to the edge and leaves a thin film. Nose carries pine, hops, sweet pink grapefruits. Taste comprises grapefruit, pine, hops, grass. Medium bodied with some light spritz in the carbonation, bitterness in the finish. Nice enough flavoursome sessionable affair!

Bottle at the ChrisO Snow Tasting, London - thanks to Chris for this beer, it think. Pours clear gold with a good, white froth head. Lovely nose, some orange and grapefruit highlights. Light sweet flavor with clean citrus fruits, light pine needles. Light bodied with fine, smooth carbonation. Light dryness to finish, with more clean grapefruit, orange and mango, along with mild, dry pine. Very solid for a relatively low ABV beer.
