Nose : Deep, resonant grapefruit aromas.
Palate : Sweet at first; bitter on the swallow, but the overriding flavours are zingy, zesty, pungent grapefruit notes from
the American hops. It’s really a citrus overdose made bearable by the rounded malt support.
Finish : Dry and hoppy, with grapefruit flavours lingering on and on.
Comments : A bold, fresh-tasting, deep amber ale, although the intense hoppiness is rather demanding and will challenge a lot of drinkers.
Score : 7.75
