3.6September 21, 2018 - at The Experiment (Pressure Drop / Verdant Tap Room, Hackney) - on keg. Bright, clear and bubbly gold with a decent white head. Light grainy malt, not much alcohol - not much fruit on the nose here - citrus, yes, and some earthy bitterness (7+). Taste follows, less earthy - simple, minimal fruit presence, but it's mostly a decent APA. Chewy, solid carbonation, medium-quick slightly sharply bitter finish, and once again, no peach or mango detected, but definite citrus/citrus zest - very drinkable.
3.7Copenhagen 18/6 2019. 44 cl can from Kihoskh, Sdr. Boulevard, Kbh V. Some sort of abstract landscape on the can. Pressure Drop's motto seems to be "Brewed in London since 2013". Seems to be a kind of short time to brag about.
Pours almost luminescent, pale yellow with a big white head. Settles as thin, patchy layer of foam unable to cover the surface of the beer. Moderate lacing.
Aroma is medium intense, sweetly fruity and with a light citric bitterness. Sweet peach and Melon. Pear and Pineapple. Light notes of Lemon and Citrus.
Light carbonation. Soft, thin, oily lightly tingling texture.
Flavor is fairly sweet followed by a medium strong bitterness. Aftertaste is bitter and citric. Lingers for a bit. Finish is quite dry.
Light, easy to drink with a nice bitter finish. But you have to be fast - it only keeps for 4 months.
3.4Aroma has grass pine and a hint of peach amidst the citrus. Taste is medium sweet but with a drying bitter finish.. palate is medium bodied oily texture soft to average carbonation and a bitter finish. Overall decent without making my pressure rise or fall.
3.6Pours hazy pale yellow with an average white head. Aroma of orange, lime zest, floral and piney notes. Sweet taste that ends up being more dry and pleasant bitter. Light to medium bodied, watery to oily texture and soft carbonated. A nice APA indeed. 🌟🌟🌟⭐️
4.3can at home. this beer had a slight haze to it. it was dry, light and hoppy just cant believe I've never had this before
3.5Pale Ale bu à l Express de Lyon. Très bonne, un poil trop houblonnée pour une PA mais bien équilibré et très appréciable
4.1Una pasada de American Pale Ale de color amarillo turbio con espuma blanca compacta y cremosa con retención perfecta. Potente aroma afrutado, cítrico y a lúpulo resinoso. De la misma forma se muestra en boca, potente y Hazy, resinosa y herbal, con notas de pomelo, mandarina y cereal ligeramente tostado, sin olvidar un final moderadamente amargo. Equilibrada, de cuerpo ligero y con textura sedosa. Una cerveza de nivel.
3.4Draught at the Beer Dock. Fruity and peachy aroma. Hazy pale yellow colour. Stable chalk white head. The flavour is fruity and slightly chalky. Low bitterness. Grainy finish.
3.8Hazy pale gold, giant white head. Aroma is all bright down under hops - Sauvinon grapes, gooseberries, dank black currant leaves, white grapefruit pith, zero malts. Dry hoppy taste, lemon pith bitterness. Light, but not watery body. And excellent dry hoppy ale.
3.5Fairly light gold, thinnish white head. Aroma of mango with a hint of peach. Tastes nicely fruit cocktails with a bitter finish. Understated, good.
3.6Citrus hoppy aroma. Quite thin bodied and a dominant citrus flavour. Bitterness hits nicely at the end.
2.6Sampled at Dudes. Medium high fluffy white lasting head. Cloudy light yellow body. Sweet apple pear aroma. Weak mild fruity straw flavor with little hops bitterness, low carbonation and a short finish. Rather boring.
3.7Keg at Bonehead, Brum. Pours hazy light gold with a small head. Aroma is mango, papaya and pineapple. Taste has papaya to start with a bitter grassy finish.
3.5Botella. Hazy yellow, nice big white head, good lacing. Aroma: Citrus hops domination with grapefruit. Good palate. Flavour: Fruity citrus hops, some exotic fruitiness, good bitterness, dry, pleasant indeed.
3.7Color amarillo pálido translúcido con espuma medio-alta que desciende lentamente con residuo medio. Aroma fresco a una mezcla de cítricos y frutas tropicales con un ligero toque herbal. Sabor en la misma línea, naranja, limón, hierba y final amargo ligero de notas a pomelo y pino. Regusto amargo medio de larga duración. Textura acuosa, cuerpo ligero y carbonatación medio-baja. Una Pale Ale muy fresca y ligera que favorece a los lúpulos Mosaic y Amarillo, tanto en sabor como en amargor.
3.5Bottle at Byron, Kensington. Zesty citrus aroma. Pale gold, haze to it.. Foamy white head. Medium bitter. Citrus and pine. Some malt. Thin. Watery. Fizzy carbonation. Dry finish. Basic but drinkable APA.
3.4Hal-pint, from tap at Experiment, shared with Finn. Misty late straw coloured body, low white head, clingy lacing. Rich citrus nose, half-dry. Mixed taste of grapefruit, herbal hops and grain. Bittersweet tail. Drinks very well. Nice (Hackney, London 28.09.2018).
3.9Bouteille. Aspect : dorée, fines bulles, mousse blanche abondante. Odorat : fruits tropicaux, citron, résineux. Bouche fraîche, ronde, houblonnée aux goûts des agrumes jaunes, petite touche vineuse. Finale sèche et moyenne amertume. Pas mal !
