Can. Columbus, Amarillo, Centennial, Simcoe.& Citra hops. Hazy gold beer, small pale cream colour head. Palate is reasonably minerally crisp and a little dry. Light malts, very mild sweetness, whisper of vanilla. Tangy and mildly bitter hops. Orange peel and a touch of strawberry. A little more vanilla and bitterness. Curious, seems to half heartedly want to be an ice cream ipa. Not ba though.

Can. Hazy orange - gold beer, small bubbly pale cream colour head. Dry palate, decent minerally crispness. Thin malts, not that sweet. Hops have a mildly pithy intro, light orange peel. Dry crisp finish brings a mild tang. For me, it lacks a centre and that makes it fairly unsatisfying.

(Cask at White Horse, Parson's Green, London, 27 May 2018) Hazy amber colour with frothy, off-white head. Malty, hoppy nose with notes of apricots, orange peel and rye bread. Malty taste with rye bread, orange peel, apricots and a balanced citric/herbal bitterness in the finish. Medium body, with a touch of sweetness. Tasty and well balanced with fresh hops coming through. Nice one.

Can at home in Hackney - picked up at Clapton Craft. Pours clear gold with a frothy, white head. Nice aroma of pale bread, tangerine. Light-medium sweet flavour with pleasant bready pale malt character, soft piney bitterness, restrained citrus fruits. Light bodied with fine, massaging carbonation. Balanced finish, more pale bread, nips of pine, tangerine rind. Overall, a great low ABV crusher. Well put together.

Keg at LBA. It pours hazy golden with the a small white head. The aroma is fresh, lemongrass, spritzy, lemon, grapefruit and lemonade. The taste is firmly dry, bready, toasty grain, earth, grassy, herbal and spice with a drying finish. Medium body and moderate, prickly carbonation. Decent session ale. Quenching.
