Leighton Profile

Temps around 30C today so this is hitting the spot. Pleasantly sweet. A little more citric lemony zip would really put this over the top but as it is, it’s a pretty classic and highly drinkable radler.

Drinks very easy. Melli mango vibes. Some citrusy hops, supportive and clean pale malts, mild rindy bitterness, a soft piney accent. Sound.

This is gorgeous stuff. Stunningly clean, some nice crispy green apple, low levels of funk, nips of fresh grass, lightly bitter skins. Dry finish, a whisper of apple juice. Nip of salinity. Delightful.

Great stuff, old-school West Coast gear, some ripening citrus, sun-kissed pale mats, mild piney bitterness, tangerine, grapefruit. Great balance. Soft resin to finish. Sound.

Easygoing lager, a touch on the sweet side, some pale biscuits, white bread, faint bitter straw. Pretty clean to finish, a little fresh cereal.
