Keg at the Brewers Tap, Southsea. Aroma make me think of Turkish Delight - sugary and fruity, perfumed. Solidly hazy orange. Thin creamy white head. Tangy citrus with a resinous streak. Boozy. Thick bodied. Creamy. Pithy. Flat carbonation. Long somewhat astringent finish. Relatively straightforward but it works very well. Neither overly fruity or overly bitter. Good stuff.

27/2/2021. Can from the The Brewers Tap, Southsea. Pours slightly hazy pale gold with a large frothy white head. Aroma gives a big citrus hit with pomelo, lemon, orange, grapefruit plus a touch of tropical fruit to balance with a little sweetness. Taste is mellow tart citrus with a nice bittersweet finish. Moderate body, average carbonation. Develops some lemongrass. Really liked this.
