Fresh can drunk 7/29/17.
Moderately hazy-to-cloudy, deep copper-orange body topped by a thin, off-white head.
Candied orange, creamsicle and lots of mango-papaya in the nose reminds of the juiciness of Imperial Galaxyic Cirrocumulus, though I didn't actually read yet what the difference is between the two (I think this one is lighter?). Galaxy in ok shape, though there is some resin and pine and a bit of malt sweetness that gets in the way. Still, it's not particularly problematic in any category, if it's just a bit overly fruitily jumbled.
Again quite messy in the mouth with sweet malts sort of clashing with light pine, mango and orange rind as carbonation isn't quite as engaging and tight as it needs to be. Lots of candied sweetness, citrus and moderate juicy fruit lingering. Has to be something else in here besides Galaxy as the bright wine, deep guava and dank greenery of that hop don't show through clearly here.

Hackney Bottleshare. Big thanks to Leighton for the can. Hazy gold beer, small pale cream colour head. Palate is airy and finely crisp. Light malts still bring a good level of creamy sweetness. Good strong piney hop, cooling. Good hop spice. Citrus and tropical fruits in good balance. Light crisp finish. Very light and clean this one. Delightful.

GBBF Day 3. Cask. Cloudy gold beer, bubbly white head. Palate is light, semi dry and has modest fine carbonation. Smooth sweetish malts, trace of cream. Resinous tropical fruits. Ripe citrus. Light pine. Some lemon on the finish. Nice but lacks that pixie dust of the best.

Cloudy, pale, thin head. Deep rich hops - dank and floral (these are MA-grown rakau). They must have used a fuckstack of hops in this, because Rakau isn't usually so goddamn brash. Sweet, moderate bitterness, nice.

Bright gold. Thin head. Has a sweet, full maltiness. Big sweet malts, and just a touch of earthy hops. Moderate bitterness.

Hazy light amber, medium head. Has a bit of that cloudy green stuff, also lots of dank hops. Malts are actually really fruity and chewy, with relatively deep bitterness. Somewhat light palate. Still the malts come across a little bit light.

Dark brown. Thin head. Crackery, thin aroma of weaker dark malts...sugars are what I want. Yet on the palate it's actually complex with nuttiness, molasses, coffee roast. Bit light. But generally flavourful.

Cloudy. Pale. Thin head. Hint of pi�a, sweet citrus, full pale malts. Light body, mild bitterness, sweet malt kiss, with a bright fruity note. Top quality session IPA.

Fruity, cloudy, yeasty, lupulin powder? So bright on the palate. Classic orange and grapefruit. Yeasty and a little doughy, but good.
