By Jeff Evans

Nose: One of the world's great beer aromas, with big, juicy, fruity hops leaping out of the glass. Earthy resins; deep citrus and pineapple notes.
Palate: Sweet and juicy, balanced by zingy, fruity hop resins. Pineapple and tart grapefruit and lime are the main elements, but this is brilliantly balanced.
Finish: Tangy, hoppy and nicely drying, with a lime-like tartness. The hop resins linger.
Comment: Astonishingly fresh tasting, outstanding pale beer. Will a UK supermarket please put it back on the shelves?
