Aug 23, 2008 (Cask at GBBF, London, 6 Aug 2008) Golden yellow colour, slightly hazy, with brief white head. Fruity, malty nose with floral, citrussy hops. Fruity taste with notes of pineapple, citrus and fresh floral hops in the finish. Some sweetness lingers throughout. Refreshing beer.

Aug 11, 2008 Cask. Orangish amber colour with small head. Aroma is quite yeasty with some hints of wood and some saltyness. Flavour is much the same along with grass and some herbs. Dry palate.

Aug 10, 2008 Bottle from Beer Essentials. Slick and silky orange amber. Lip-smacking freshly-squeezed Cascade aroma. Grapefruit and pineapple jelly. No surprises in the mouth- more grapefruit, fibrous pineapple citrus and earthy pineneedle. A squeeze of Twinings Lemon and Ginger. Hints of dankness, Dry Roasted and ash. But forget about that, just close your eyes and INHALE. Brazen, uncomplicated, and sodden with single varietal hop loveliness.

Aug 9, 2008 (6/29/08) Bottle sample at RBESG08 grand tasting in Plzen. Muddy yellow-brown. Aroma of juicy citric hops. Malty flavor, a bit caramelly at first, continues with bitter hops and quite a lot of grapefruit. Medium-bodied.
