(Cask at GBBF, London, 8 Aug 2007) Pale yellow colour with green tinges, frothy white head. Fruity nose with notes of citrus, lemon and fresh grassy hops. Fruity taste with a delicate grainy malt background, notes of grapefruit, lemon and slightly grassy hops in a citrussy finish. Very tasty and rather complex considering the fairly low abv. Well done.
