Bottle from Beers of Europe [280414]
Light amber, slight haze, big frothy bubbly white, good lacing
Aroma - Grapefruit zest, some floral hops, fresh zesty hops, nice sweet fruity light caramel malt background
Taste of bitter zesty hops, sweet grapefruit, getting some sweet sponge cake mix(!), grapefruit zest, lots of bitter zest, alcohol well hidden, sweet light caramel malts, touch of slight toffee in the background to add interest, really tasty
Palate - soft carb, medium body, rather sweet with bitter zesty hops. Finish as main flavour, lingering very bitter zest and sweet malts to balance the bitterness, some slight toffee
Overall - Just a cracking beer, lots of flavour, really well made
