Pours a deep golden orange colour with a strong lacy head. Aroma is full-on hoppy with strong floral hops, orange and some sweetish notes.

Draught at brewpub. Pours a clear amber with a thin white head. Smells of grapefruit, citrus and a hint of caramel. Tastes initially flowery, then a medium bitterness, followed by sweetness, finishing with a dry bitterness. Medium bodied. Oily texture.
Not bad, but the sweetness and bitterness aren’t a perfect marriage.
