UPDATED: AUG 25, 2012 On tap in the Southampton Arms, London on 2nd October 2010. Gold with a white head. Bursts with hoppiness; citric grapefruit and grass. Lovely touch of salt on the tongue. Finish long for a keg beer, and hoppy. Zingy mouthfeel. A great surprise. On tap at Camden Town Brewery Bar, London on 24th August 2012. Clear golden amber with fully lacing white foam all the way down. Hoppy slightly yeasty aroma. Herby hops and citric tang on the tongue. Biscuit malts balance lingering grassiness and citric tangy hoppiness in the finish. Zingy mouthfeel. Very flavoursome.

[Keg at Café Pivni, York] Golden pour from the keg with a good white head, and a nice amount of rising carbonation. Aromas of grassy hop, continues on the palate – good balance of sweet fruitiness and bitterness, very easy to drink. Café Pivni have replaced Sierra Nevada Pale Ale with this, and as good as SNPA is, I’m not complaining [26022011]

UPDATED: JUL 14, 2011 Euston Tap. Pours hazy golden. Citrous hoppy aroma. Taste is a burst of grapefruit and citrous. Really good interpretation of an American Pale Ale. Really nice stuff Keg at Brew Wharf. Texture is surprisingly light. Colour like a lager. Lasting sour grapefruit finish.

Pale blonde beer with lemon on the nose medium carbonation and kiwi plus a bitter finish

Great pale ale showing the world how to make a real pale ale that has a distinctive crisp taste that leaves you wanting more. With light undertones of fruit it makes the perfect summery ale leaving you wanting more

On-Tap at Spuntino, London
Hop filled to begin with an almost like an American style amber ale with a lot of summer fruits fighting to be noticed and a little citrus as well. There is some mild grapefruit and touches of wheat as well.
Amber orange with a thin but foamy white head on the top of the beer that stays throughout. There is some good lacing.
A good mix of fruit and hops to begin with along with some mild pine notes and definitely some grapefruit following this. The taste is quite light and summery with a slight bitter kick right at the end.
Smooth on the palate with a medium body and carbonation levels about the same. There was a subtle alcohol kick around the middle to back end and a refreshing, easy going finish that was slightly bitter and quite fruity.

An enjoyable beer and whilst nothing outstanding I was wishing it came as a full pint rather than just a half in the restaurant I ordered it.

Keg, Sheffield Tap, 16th April 2011. In truth, reviewed only so I could play the 1-2-3-4 video to my wife. A more-than-decent pale that does what it needs to do; quench, slake, satiate.

UPDATED: OCT 26, 2012 Draught at Beer Wharf, Soutwark, London. Clear golden, medium white head. Citrusy and resiny hop aroma. Light to medium bodied, medium carbonation. Dry with medium bitterness.

From tap at Euston Tap. Pours clear to cloudy yellow with a small white head. Aroma is peachy and citrusy. Citrusy, peachy and crisp hoppy flavoured. Smooth and easy fruity hoppy. Subdued bitterness, not overly sweet. Mellow and nice. Smooth and hoppy finish.
