Bottle, 8C. Golden amber with an inch of white head that fades quite quickly. Aroma of grass clippings, gooseberries, honeydew melon, lime leaf. Lowish carbonation. So fruity, but not all that sweet. There’s really not much going on in the malt department, so much so it’s light-bodied verging on watery. Bitterness is moderate but has nothing to cut through. A little pine or menthol creeps in. Doesn’t really attempt to do a lot of things that I like but does what it does very well indeed.

From a 500ml bottle on 30/6/2013 (shared by Butz with thanks). Pours a clear deep golden with a medium head. Has a big fruity, hoppy aroma, with citrus and pine notes. Has light caramel malt background, lots of citrus fruit (heaps of mandarin), and an assertive, lingering resiny bitterness. Medium body and carbonation. If this is an APA, I’m the Pope. Comes across as a very enjoyable American style IPA. Very nice.
