Pours cloudy light orange, sediment present. Fruity, floral and dried leaves aroma. Get a fruity and grapefruit taste. I quite enjoyed this. On a hot summers day it would be really good.

Bottle from Cotteridge Wines, Birmingham. Had been wanting to try this for the longest time. It certainly is a very solid Golden indeed. Good level of hops, some vegetation, a lightness from the abv. Orchardy. Super easy to scoff. Although I hate labelling things as sessionable, this typifies sessionability-ness.

Bottle. Bright lemony yellow, slightly hazy, with a thick creamy head that laces thickly. Aroma is pungent green grassy hops with citrus undertones and an earthy edge. Flavour is very hoppy, grassy and green, with a light, lively mouthfeel and a crisp dry finish. 3.8%? Really? This beer is amazing.

Very pale clear straw with a thin white head with good retention and nice lacing. Aroma is citrusy and slightly piny hops (very nice hop aroma) and pale malt. Flavor is very fruity with grapefruit, lemon, orange, peach and passionfruit, nice crisp pale malt and a hint of mint. Thin body with a watery mouthfeel and lively carbonation. Very nice.

Cask at CB & K, Pimlico. Terrific one to session on a gorgeous sunny afternoon in estimable company. Faintly cloudy gold, with a modest scrim of bubbles. Soft fruity nose and a kiss of bitters for good measure. Smooth mouthfeel, lightly prickly palate. Flavors brim with brightness and citrus hops, backed up by a pine finish. So good.
