Reviewed at the Cambridge Beer Festival.
Appearance: honey color, not quite clear, small head with no lace
Smell: light aroma, ale fruitiness but not the intense "grapefruit, lychee and orange hop flavors" that the brewer-provided description promises.
Taste: what a letdown, after seeing the name I thought a British brewer had attempted to make a true APA but it seems I was mistaken. Little discernible hop flavors.
Mouthfeel: good body, unfortunately probably the high point of this beer.
Drinkable: for all its faults, fairly drinkable

Hand-pulled pint in 'The Wrekin', a good real ale pub near me in Wellington, Shropshire: 8th June 2013.
Light golden citrus hop brew: refreshing but too simular to the host of golden brews using American (and sometimes New Zealand hops) hops that are flooding the UK market at the moment.
Looked and tasted OK but I like a bit of darkness in my beers.

500 mL bottle poured into a glass.
Pours with minimal 1-finger head and a slight bit of lacing. Sits atop a blonde-colored ale with hints of orange color.
Smells of pink grapefruit with a hint of cinnamon.
A very well-balanced taste--bittersweet in all the right ways. Picking up citrus and fruit sweetness.
Mouthfeel is refreshing with a nice bite from the carbonation. This is NOT one of those extra-smooth type ales.
Very tasty and drinkable.
