Taste is weedy, resinous, lightly piney, grapefruity, a touch of fruit peel, and biscuit with a medium bitter finish. Light body with medium carbonation.

Cask at Toronado. Clear gold pour with a short white head leaving heavy lace. Nose is citrus hops with some sweet malt and heat. Medium body with low levels of fine carbonation (cask). Pine, caramel, citrus, booze, tropical fruit, birch and toast. Finish is a bit more bitter, but the main aromas are aromatic hops. Cut the ethanol aromas down and this is glorious.
