4 AROMA 8/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 5/5 OVERALL 16/20 JorisPPattyn (7298) - Antwerpen, - NOV 17, 2012Yellow head, fading to transparant over very slightly hazed orange beer, well-carbonated. Very powerful nose of citrus and other exotic fruit (passion- and grapefruit especially). Very iniviting smell. Pure fruity hops; exotic fruit, citrus, hopoils galore, hence pretty bitter, in the most fruity way. Obviously light body, spritzy, but very refreshing and packed with flavour. Yet another low-alcohol gem. England did it always, now Italy, France, Netherlands and here Scotland can do it too - WTBH can’t Belgian brewers do more similar things?

3.5 AROMA 8/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 13/20 LicoriceKing (27) - DENMARK - MAY 14, 2013
UPDATED: MAY 15, 2013 Clear copper. Aroma: Grapefruit, orange, citrus, bread and grass. Taste: Grapefruit, pomegranate, earthy, salty and bitter. Fizzy mouthfeel - dry and bitter finish, but not very long. Unusual pale ale, but a worthy addition to the BrewDog core range, especially considering the low ABV and easy drinkability. Probably a little thin for some, but by no means a bad beer.
