Bottle shared in London - picked up at the brewery last week. Pours hazy gold with a large, frothy white head. Big dank hop nose with ample pine, grapefruit, piss. Light to medium sweet flavor with understated pale malts, lots and lots of fresh, vibrant and juicy hops, pithy grapefruit, mandarin orange. Medium bodied with average carbonation. Lightly resinous on the finish with soft grassy bitterness, more joyful citrusy hops, grapefruit, lemon rind, pine needles. Outstanding.

750 ml bottle thanks going to Willrunforbeer on this gem. Mostly hazy gold with massive head retention that coated the glass. Fantastic aroma! Citrus upfront, scallions, grassy with good yeast. The dry hopping is crazy good.
The flavor is just as nice. Very citrus forward with the grassy/ floral notes hitting in the backend. The bitterness is moderate and again grass and scallion nots. Body is on the medium light side but very palatable. The drinkability is wonderful, so much hop flavor. Thanks for this Brian !

Growler at home in Salisbury. The aroma holds lots of dry biscuits, cereal, faint dough, straw, touches of lemon zest. Light to medium sweet flavor with relaxed, dry wheat character, more biscuits and cereals, mild bitter hay, further lemon notes. Light to medium bodied with average to lively carbonation. More of the same on the finish, great balance, more biscuits, subtle white grapes, straw, flaked wheat. Lovely stuff. Just effortlessly drinkable. Wonderful.

Bottle shared at Kernel Brewery at Zwanze Dat 20/09/2014. Huge thanks to Leighton for this one. Clear golden coloured pour with a loose white head. Aroma is big juicy mellon, pretty big nelson sauvin like character, soft citrus and lovely resin. Flavour is composed of juicy peachy tropical fruits, grassy hop, some orange skin. Palate is really smooth, melts on the tongue, some sticky resin. Smoother assertive bitterness and nice fruityness. Really tasty.
