Bottle from Honest Beer. It pours pretty hazy bright gold with a medium white head. The aroma is fresh, bright, quite juicy, zesty, orange, tangerine, mandarin, brioche and toasted oat. The taste is dry, good hit of bitterness, zesty, pine, grapefruit, orange peel, mandarin, kumquat, tangerine, pine, touch of piss with a firmly dry finish. Light - medium body and fine, massaging carbonation. Fresh and well - rounded. Drinks very well.

Bottle thanks to Leighton. It pours clear golden-amber with a small white head. The nose is toast, grainy, sherbet, orange peel, grass and earth. The taste is crisp, bitter, sherbet, metallic notes, orange peel, toast, dough and cereal with a dry finish. Medium body and fine carbonation. More punchy hops please. A simple APA.
