Although i had a pretty busy night on the old barbeque i did manage to squeeze this one in, it had to be done! Worth the wait as well!
A golden coloured beer with a slightly green tint, hazy with a weak white head. A strong citrusy hop nose of grapefruits and lemons, then a sweetish malty aroma. A dry, hoppy taste of citrusy grapefruits and lemons, then there is a biscuity malt flavour to balance in the finish. (Cask - @ The Fox & Hounds Summer Beer Festival 2006, Heacham, Norfolk).

Very nice floral and citrussy aroma. Distinctly hoppy flavour with notes of tropical fruits / citrus, but not too bitter. An excellent beer! kook (2034), Perth, Western Australia, Australia

Medium refreshing body. Clean malty start with a long grapefruit citric hop finish. Quite grassy but never over the top. Tastes so fresh. Great stuff.

Kick Ass Beer!
Refreshing, nice full body and palate. Great fruit flavours and a fantastic hoppy dryness.
Think this beer is dry hopped and it certainly benefits from that.
nice residual balanced sweetness in the finish that keeps you coming back for more!
