On tap at the Craft Beer. Clear amber beer, little white head. Light semi dry palate. Some mild bitterness with nice rich marmalade fruits. Mildy sour. Semi dry finish. Good stuff!

On cask at sir John moore, Glasgow. Pours amber with good white head. Overriding hops, grapefruit well balanced for its strength. Excellent ---Rated via Beer Buddy for iPhone

poured a deep straw colour with a dense foamy head. lots of hoppy grapefruit in the nose and plenty of hop flavour in the mouth. a powerful bitter finish. overall very drinkable, especially considering the ABV - which is barely detectable. cask, old bell tavern. harrogate

Got a bitterness that’s not overpowering. Bready notes, very little head that sticks. It’s a good brew, but a little disappointing.

On gravity at the Volunteer, Bristol 30/3/2013. Golden with a thin white head. Big aroma of grapefruit, clementines and pine. Flavour had a lot of tropical fruit, solid malts, goosberries and a dry finish. Very good.

Cask @ 5th ACBF 2012. A clear golden colored beer, with a white head, big bubbels. The aroma of fruits like citrus, flowery with notes of hop. The taste is dry bitter, sweet notes, fruits like citrus. The aftertaste is also sweet with hop bitter.

33cl bottle from Westholme Stores, Goring. Pale amber with a thin white head; sweet tropical fruit aroma; full of fruity flavours, clemantine and satsuma to start, then becoming more grapefruity, and with a strong, sharp, cirusy bitterness; and a lingering finish. A really good Pacific style IPA.
