Can. Medium haze on this gold beer, small pale cream colour head. Smooth palate, slightly soft, decent fine carbonation. Soft malts, a nice creamy sweetness, a bit sweeter than I would normally like but it works here. Hops are just ... bloody marvellous! Sabro loveliness! Pineapple and soft coconut with soft pine. A lesser tropical fruit undertone. Smooth finish.

Keg @ Tap and Can, last day before Lockdown 2.0. Misty yellow, small white head. Aroma of breezy citrus. Taste presents quite a settled pale character, light hop notes, grassy citrus, soft zest, moderate carbonation. Fine, but not a lot going on.
