Pale gold, light haze, thin white head. Aroma of pineapple, pepper, rust, baked apples, galangal, and a very weird, very faint note of Norwegian brown cheese. Tastes of pink peppercorn, whole wheat, green papaya, mango chutney, and lime. Kinda weird, but not bad, and the overall crisp bitterness and dry and frothy, yet full texture work very well as a summery quaffer. Possible food pairings: gazpacho, sea bass, grilled tiger prawns, and fried chicken.

On cask at Holborn Whippet, London.

Creamy white sparkler head over spun straw yellow.
Mango smoothie nose.
Cracked wheat than tart citrus and papaya nose.
Chalky finish and leafy linger.
Light, smooth, slight chew.

Hops definitely show up - some real fruit. A bit thin but one step above the usual blonde - half again the normal hops. In fact, a tad too minerally (soapy?) on the finish. Still a good single hop, though.
