Can from Against The Grain. Hazy deep golden body with a white head. Low carbonation. Faint lacing. Aroma of orange and tomato. Flavour of watermelon, peppery hops and cantaloupe. Thin to medium body with a slick texture. Light fizz. This is very crisp and juicy.

Bottle picked up from Hereford Beer House, cheers you two! Had this Saturday 18th October 2025 in the company of Jude, Baz, Andrew and Pauline, Annasley, Isobel, Keith and David. Pours hazy gold with a mid sized white head, aroma is an interesting mix, a little bit gluey, citrus and cardboard, tastes a little bit thin and again a bit random, I don't really think that it's a classic West Coast IPA, it's pleasant enough but it's a bit muddled, citrussy and a bit of pine but again a bit of cardboard. Ok.

Can from Westhill Service Station. It pours hazy pineapple gold with a foamy white head. The aroma is fresh, bright, juicy, peach, nectarine, pineapple, zingy, tangy, candied peel and a touch of sherbet. The taste is crisp, dry, snappy, dull bitterness, green, juicy, touch weedy, grass, pineapple, peach, nectarine, floury bread, some pic n mix and sherbet with a firmly dry finish. Average body and fairly high, foamy carbonation. Maybe a touch over carbonated but it's a tasty and balanced beverage. Nice one.
