Keg, half-pint outside The House of Grain, Shrewsbury on 9th May 2021. hazy yellow body, full and lasting white crown. Citrus leanings from those Mosaic hops rule the nose and taste. Liked it.
3/4/21, first rate, RB score 7/3/7/3/14 (3.4), Can that Jim shared - cheers! Cloudy yellow with a tiny white head. Smells and tastes of pineapple with a touch of white bread and grapefruit. Finishes moderately bitter and lightly dry leaving a pleasant, lasting aftertaste. Nice enough beer; very drinkable but ultimately just yet another pale ale clone. I've definitely got pale ale fatigue and it's taking something special to make one stand out.
30/5/21, second rate, RB score 8/3/7/3/16 (3.7), Jim sharing a can again - cheers. Hazy yellow with a white head. Pineapple and grapefruit are pleasantly balanced against pine and grass. Nice fresh hops. Very refreshing and moreish. Better than on the first try, enjoyed this.
Overall score is the average of the two rates.
330ml can delivered from the Salmon, Leicester and drunk at home. Light golden, a bit hazy with a small layer of white head & good lacing. Smells chock full of Mosaic. Lots of apricot, blackberry and sweet lemon candies, with a light fusty note. The taste is pretty sweet overall, but the intensity of the hops give it a lightly astringent bitterness mid-sip to finish. More stone fruit and maybe a touch of mango in the aftertaste. Heavy carbonation makes the beer too gassy, but otherwise it is fantastic.
A yellow clear body, with a small head. Looks fun.
A sharp aroma of citrus and orange peel, with light floral notes on deep inhalation. Reminded me slightly of cleaning fluid, more so than the other BBN beers.
The body has little bitterness, somewhat sour. Not much depth to it.
Not a big fan myself of this beer, just not enough in it for me.
2/3rd of a pint from the tap at JB's Brewhouse in Jersey. Pours hazy yellow with a small white head. Aromas & tastes of citrus, lemon, pine, hints of mango, resin, grass & hops. Medium body. Moderate bitter finish. Very enjoyable

Puszka. Mętne o żółtym kolorze I białej, obfitej pianie, która opada powoli. W aromacie I zapachu sporo owoców tropikalnych. Są ananasy, mango, liczi ale także cierpkie nuty liści herbaty, w tle grejpfruty i owoce pestkowe z naciskiem na morele. Ogólnie jest owocowo. Chmiele wibruja w tle. Wysycenie małe, goryczka średnia, zywiczna.
Good session ale. Nice and hippy. Could drink multiple

Body: Light-bodied with medium carbonation.

ZNakomity aromat - mega nafta bardzo wyrazisty mosaic. W smaku pijalne, wyraziste. ZNowu ta nafta, owoce tropikalne. Ciało średnie, ale to takie parametry.
Pint draft at Burger Bar New York, Singapore. Appearance is a cloudy gold, topped with a finger of white froth with moderate retention. Aroma is citrus mainly. Taste is lightly sweet citrus, fruit rind bitter, and some woody, floral notes, ending off with a moderate bitter. Very refreshing and tasty in a light bodied package.
Piwo jaśniutkie, jasnożółte, lekko opalizujące. Piana biała, niska, redukuje się szybko sycząc i zanika niemal całkowicie. Aromat dość intensywny, wyraźnie chmielowy, z ewidentnym wpływem Mosaica w postaci nut białego winogrona oraz delikatnej nafty.
W pierwszym odczuciu jest faktycznie lekkie ale zbyt intensywnie nasycone – szczypiące nasycenie nieco przeszkadza. W smaku mamy powtórkę z aromatu, czyli jasne winogrono, białe owoce, lekką cytrynowo-limonkową kwaskowość i sesyjną nowofalową goryczkę – raczej niską w intensywności, krótką i niezalegającą, dającą wytrawny finisz.
Hennon keltainen väri, ei juuri vaahtoa. Tuoksussa aprikoosia, sitruksia. Maussa sitrusta, hapanta, katkeroa. Selkeä maku.

Aroma has herbal grassy hop quality. Pours hazy golden brown body with white lace halo. Taste is medium sweet to bitter easy gently spiced transition. Palate is medium bodied oily texture average carbonation and a light bitter finish. What do you demand in a session ipa? Consistency sure complexity if you are lucky. Easy drinking.

Tap (HBF2018) (6+:3:5:3:10=2.7+)
Fruity aroma, a touch starchy. Much starchier taste, what I often find from APA yeast. Light to medium palate, gentle bitterness. Boring pale ale, aroma was the only interesting part.
Straw yellow color, herbal aromas fruity notes, pine flavor, resinous, light body.
Can at home / had at the tap room as well. The beer poured hazy. I hate mosaic hops as they always seems to be oniony / garlicky now maybe the beer / hops has gone off but I loved this beer it was perfect on a hot summer day
