Bottle thanks muchly to my SisInLaw who has an uncanny knack of finding beers I've not had. Cheers! A light haze on this gold beer, small bubbly pale cream colour head. Palate is light, mildly dry and has a good fine crispness. Thinnish malts base but a decent amount of sweetness. The new world hops present as piney and very slightly floral with light tropical fruits. Piney crisp finish. Very light and clean and quite quaffable just a tad thin on the mouthfeel.

Bottle thanks muchly to my SisInLaw who has an uncanny knack of finding beers I've not had. Cheers! Hazy amber beer, small pale cream colour head. Airy and mildly dry palate, good fine carbonation. Softish malts, light cream and a little caramel. Very mild floral bitterness and slightly ripe citrus before a fairly dry crisp finish. Lacks a little hop bite but a clean and drinkable bitter.

330ml bottle thanks to Gus. Clear amber appearance, good off-white frothy head. Mild caramel malt, mild grapefruit bitterness with a light citrus touch. A few months past the BBD and can taste there's a bit of age on it but it's still decent.

Bottle on 26th November 2022, received as gift. Pours hazy deep amber with shallow disappearing foam and spot lacing. Orange citrus peel in aroma. Juicy orange citrus in-mouth, with veg notes of broad beans. Grasses, savoury notes and touches of caramel malt in finish. A lot of body for the strength, and an engaging mouthfeel.

330ml bottle: BB 1st June 2022. Drank on my patio in the afternoon sun on 23rd March 2022. Mini-haze to the golden pour, short lasting white head. Mild citrus nose and taste, all a bit 'subtle'. I know it's only 3.5% ABV, but it shows! Not overly impressed.

Pours an almost clear pale golden colour with a small mostly lasting foamy white head. The aroma is sweet citrus and sweet toasted malts with some floral hop notes. A moderately sweet taste, sweet oranges, pale malts and melon flavours with a light dry and lingering light bitterness.
