Old rating - 330ml can, pours hazy golden with a white head. Aromas & tastes of grapefruit, orange, caramel, grain & hops. Medium body. Light bitter finish
Qué barbaridad de trago. Pomelo y cerveza muy equilibrados. Muy refrescante
Nez très fort en pamplemousse rose.
Idem en bouche.
Très rafraîchissant et agréable.
Birra molto estiva, dissetante, con bassa intensità alcolica e dal corpo abbastanza esile. Di color biondo/ambrato leggermente velato, con una bella schiuma bianca persistente, al naso spiccano i sentori di pompelmo che si riflettono al palato con un amaro forse non troppo piacevole (le note troppo agrumate quasi stonano, l’amaro sembra dato in prevalenza dal pompelmo anziche dal luppolo) e mediamente persistente

[33cl can from Morrisons, Bracknell.] A bright golden amber pour with a loose white head; grapefruit aroma; full bodied with a sharp grapefruit taste; and a long bitter citrus finish. Clean, crisp and refreshing.
강한 시트러스향 호가든의 가벼운버젼인거같다
Served from Perfect Draft at home.
Rocky white head stayed on an unclear vivid gold body.
Sweet citrus, confectionery & grapefruit aroma.
Medium bodied, smooth with a sharp back.
Bitter/Sweet citrus, tropical fruits & stone fruit tastes with bitter pine & grapefruit finish.
I was expecting grapefruit and definitely got it...quite sharp going towards a sour beer I. My opinion...ok but wouldn’t buy in bulk (perfect draft) again
Clear golden color with lacing off-white head. Aroma has grapefruit, pineapple, mango and apricot. Taste is fruity with long bitter and dry aftertaste. Flavors of grapefruit, apricot, mango and pineapple.
Tap at the Fourpure Taproom in London. This beer is so ridicliously grapefruit that it shocks you in the smell and then the taste. It grows on you a wee bit but you're stop left feeling the grapefruit is far too much that you don't get much else at all.
Color dorado turbio con espuma medio-alta blanca de buena retención y excelente residuo. Aroma a pomelo, piel de cítricos y hierba con notas a cereal poco tostado y pan. Sabor a pomelo, hierba fresca y cereal con notas a frutas verdes y ligera levadura. Dulzor medio-ligero, acidez muy ligera y amargor medio-alto con regusto medio-largo. Textura acuosa, cuerpo y carbonatación medios. Una Pale Ale marcada por el pomelo en todos sus aspectos: sabor, aroma, amargor y ligera acidez. Muy fresca, fácil de beber y con el punch de una IPA.
330ml can. Pours hazed yellow golden with a white cap. Aroma: bread, grapefruit, light sour citrus, hops. Taste: moderate sweet & bitter, malt, pine, grapefruit. Light to medium body with soft carbonation
330 ml can. Unclear golden, big foamy head. A lot of grapefruit, grapefruit zest, some grassy hoppy notes and a bit pine. Citrus bitterness and some sourness. Medium bodied, oily texture, soft carbonated, dry bitter finish with a lot of grapefruit coming through. Not a bad Pale Ale, but too much of grapefruit.
Can from Honest Brew. Pours cloudy gold, frothy white head, good level of retention and lacing. Grapefruit, tangerine aroma. Very refreshing citrus taste. Lightish body and soft carbonation. Excellent.
A nice beer for sure... Just a notch too grapefruit for me. It's very well executed but I have never sat down and devoured a whole grapefruit and I ain't ready to start doing it now. Beer with your grapefruit sir??? Yes please.
Hazy amber colour. Grapefruit aroma and taste that follows. Fairly strong taste and not hidden. Long aftertaste with plenty of bitterness making you want to take another drink
Three finger foamy head. Pours a hazy golden then becomes clearer with good carbonation. Grapfruit and cirtus on the nose. Malts and grapefruit on the palate.
Zajefajny aromat, no po prostu bomba. Z wyglądu piwo jest lekko przymglone, pomarańczowe, z trwałą białą, która szyje na szkle. We wspomnianym aromacie mamy grejpfruta, liczi, cukierki wieloowocowe i taką świeżość. Smak jest oczywiście grejpfrutowo, gorycznie, wychodzą cytryny, ale cechuje to wszystko ładny balans. Naprawdę ciekawa propozycja.

En lækker pale ale, malten og grapefrugten spiller rigtig godt sammen, så den ikke stikker for meget i en retning. Syrlig lettere sød og afbalanceret, dog er lychen ikke tydelig. Meget frisk feel, medium body, medium carbonation. På dåse. 4.3/5

05-05-2020; can; at home (bought at Saveur Bière, as part of their April 2020 discovery box).
The looks of the beer are good. It is style specific. The beer has a golden yellow colour, is slightly pale, and crystal clear. On top there is a thick layer of frothy white foam. Foam retention is high. The foam collapses only slowly. Not bad.
The aroma of the beer is nice. The beer has a nice malty aroma, which gives some bready notes. Not to strong. The hops give some citrus notes, mainly some zest. The citrus notes are enhanced by the grapefruit. This is clearly present. It is however not too fruity. It could be stronger. Nice easy beer for in the afternoon though.
The taste is nice. Malts and some of the fruits give nice sweets. Besides this there is a nice bitterness from the hops and a strong grapefruit bitterness. A nice sour fruit aroma is there too. It is quite bitter, but not completely off balance.
The palate of the beer is fine. Ligt body, slightly thin texture and medium carbonation. The bitterness gives some sparkle. The finish has a nice grapefruit note at first, but in the end it is mainly bitterness. Maybe a bit too bitter.
330ml can from Beer Hawk - Hazy gold body, thin white head. Nose is pink grapefruit, quite pithy. Taste has big citrus bite at the front, crisp bitterness, long aftertaste. Not bad at all.
Bel dorato carico, con schiuma finissima. Naso manco a dirlo di grapefruit, in bocca buon equilibrio.
Very tasty, nice amount of citrus, particularly on the finish, not so much on the nose. Not much head, somewhat cloudy initially, slowly fading to become translucent. Excellent.
Hazy, white head wanders off soon.
Slightly more sour orange on the nose, very grapefruit.
Very refreshing when BBQ-ing, I'll be having more.
light, refreshing, juicy beer.
not a flavor of grapefruit, but it of pinkgf.
i want a little richer of molt flavor...
Nose: super grapefruit acid, swimming pool, sour orange, lemon body wash, lemon cake pie.
Taste: lemon pie, hops, long finish, creamy
Excellent pale ale. Light gold colour, thin whyhead. Aroma unequivocally grapefruit, with a bit of biscuit malt. Taste grapefruit and refreshing citrus. Very nice.
Leicht trübes Gelb, schöner schaum, im Geruch etwas Grapefruit hopfig, im Geschmack kommt die Grapefruit ganz nett, dann der Hopfen im Abgang richtig wuchtig herb mit einem Hauch Grapefruit, nicht schlecht
Fat @ Malmö Brewing Taproom. Klar gyllengul öl med med ett vitt skum. Doft och av grapefrukt, citrus, tropisk frukt och lättare tallbarrstoner.
