440 ml can, as Abbeydale Heathen American Pale Ale, from Bier Huis, Ossett. ABV is 4.1%. Gusher can. Golden colour with floaties. Large to moderate coarse white head. Pleasant aroma of citrus, tropical fruits and spruce. Fizzy and citric mouthfeel. Citrus and pine in the flavour. A sharp bitterness in the finish.

A 330ml can with a BB of July 2018, so it's a little out of date. Purchased a while back from Trembling Madness in York. The label describes it as a refreshing APA hopped with Mosaic.

A: Poured into a tulip. Can-conditioned. A hazy amber hue with tons of chunky sediment and good carbonation. Produces a vast head of fluffy white foam with decent retention; this slowly subsides to a patchy surface layer. Nice rocky lacing.

S: Aroma of sharp fruity hops with hints of mango, pineapple, tropical fruit, citrus zest, peel, earthiness, ale yeast and subtle malt. Decent but lacking in intensity; perhaps a tad faded.

T: Tastes of fruity aromatic hops with notes of sharp citrus zest, peel, mango, tropical fruit, white grape, subtle leafiness, earthiness, ale yeast and pale malt. Very dry, followed by a crisp hop-driven bitterness upon swallowing.

M: Mouthfeel is smooth, tingly and dry, with lively carbonation and decent body. Somewhat astringent; dries the palate. Aftertaste of fruity hops, leafy bitterness, earthy yeast and faint pale malt.

O: A well-crafted APA with a pleasing fruity character. Looks alright, while the aroma and flavour are sharp, fruity and earthy. Subtle malt underpins the hops. Body is OK. Goes down a treat - well worth sampling (fresh) if you have the chance.
