Imperial Pint (US Pint and 3.2oz) can in California after watching my football team beat Manchester United 12 to11 on penalties; 27th August 2025. Grimsby Town really did Slap & Tumble one of the worlds greatest football teams. Anyway the beer poured almost clear, there was a slight haze in the dull golden body, on top a white affair of bubbles. Dank and very, very hoppy, bitter throughout with a boozy citrus bite. Enjoyed the game more, but this was fine too.

US Pint can from a Trader Joe's, drank by the pool during a family BBQ at my daughters in Laguna Hills on 8th August 2025. Golden body, almost clear, short lived white crown. The name gives the game away here, it's got a citrus nose and flavour front, with a slight earthy pine undertone once you get into the beer. Neither dank nor explosive tropical fruit feel, it's a citrussy beer with a calming pine feel. Easy drinking pint, went well with the pork and rice salad.

US Pint can from a Trader Joe's, poured into a La Chouffe stemmed tulip (twice) at Sarah Janes in Laguna Hills on 2nd August 2025. Strawberry blonde in colour, fast fading pale pink head. Weak strawberry aroma and taste, didn't take to it at all.

Part of a flight (4 x 4 Fl Oz pours) in Finney's, Laguna Beach on 29th March 2025. Nice looking amber beer with a red hue and a smooth beige head. Semi-sweet and malty, some good bitterness with a little bite in the finish. Liked it.

Draft US Pint in Finney's, Laguna Beach with lunch on 29th March 2025. Young serving lass assured me that all the Finney's beers were their recipe's but brewed by Brewery X purely for them. Had a flight after this pint to get those extra ticks in! Anyway this was a clean golden beer with a speckled wispy white head. Kind of fruity without too much tropical/citrus flavouring. Came very cold, but as it warmed it got more interesting and pleasant. Nice enough blend without actually exciting my taste buds.

Part of a flight (4 x 4 Fl Oz pours) in Finney's, Laguna Beach on 29th March 2025. Hazed golden pour, white head. Citrus nose and hop bite, plenty of hops in this one. Mosaic hops doing their thing, minimal malt action here.

Part of a flight (4 x 4 Fl Oz pours) in Finney's, Laguna Beach on 29th March 2025. Ruby hue to the clean dark brown body, off-white topping. Malty and semi-sweet with a Maple syrup trace or two. Good hop balance and almost interesting.

Part of a flight (4 x 4 Fl Oz pours) in Finney's, Laguna Beach on 29th March 2025. Pale golden body, bright and clear, wispy white head. Not a lot going on to be honest, refreshing enough but lacked oomph and depth of flavour to me.
