In special fuzzy-o-vision......[/caption]This is a 5.1% ABV , 153 calories a serve beer, making this about 4.18 standard drink units.
I was watching the cricket, and had to wait until 13 overs, thats about an hour, had passed before I could have my self-imposed no drink until the first wicket falls. This could have been 3 minutes though, cricket is like that.
Lightly hoppy when I popped the top on the growler, gorgeous orange golden colour, nice carbonation, and a smallish head, the days of the big head appear behind me and I didn't bring the lucky timber home from the beach
This is a lovely mildly hoppy beer, with some nice floor notes, and the soft carbonation makes it a really easy drinking beer which I could probably have a lot of.
I really wouldn't describe this as a high bitter beer, and if you'd been a bit gun-shy about APA this could change your mind.

I still have it.[/caption]The pdubyah-o-meter has this at 7.5 which makes it somewhat better than good. It's downfall is that this, although easy drinking is that it doesn't have enough of a profile to keep you engaged, and a session whilst possible might end up with a bit of indifference.
It's alright.
Updated:
An hour later (he tried to convince you) as this warmed up the bitterness became a bit sharper, which isn't a bad thing, but it means that for me the mellow sweetness moves backwards. This doesn't change the way I think about this beer, but it was fair to mention it.
I drink this of course at whatever it comes out of the fridge at temperature, I might invest in a thermometer and that would mean more investigation about the temperature the brewer wants to serve this at, which means the right glass, and so it goes on. I think I'll stick to the addendum method.
