Beautiful amber color; thin persistent head. Despite the light color, I would label it a Bitter, with the minimum supporting malt profile and an evident hop character; solid bitterness and quite interesting English hops, both in the aroma and final, a bit earthy.

Clear golden with tiny white head. Sweet malty aroma with caramel notes. Flavour likewise with floral hops that gives it a bitter finish.
