@ Bon Accord, Glasgow. Straw colour. The aroma has light straw. Soft malts character - light breezy malt. Quick, sweetish finish.

050711: Looks almost like a Witbier. A little thin summer beer with floral taste.

Bottle. Slightly hazy yellow with small white head. Flavour is malt, hops, little bitter, little citrus, little fruit and lots of saaz hops.

(Bottle 5/7-2011) My sample was clear but mostly it was very unclear yellow color, thin malt body, bitter aftertaste, light hop aroma.

Bottle at Cockermouth tasting Cockney Pub. Creamy white good mostly lasting head. Pale yellow cloudy colour. Light malty and heavy hoppy aroma. Grape notes. Moderate bitter flavor. Average moderate bitter finish. Strong grape notes. Creamy palate, almost cask like. Great beer.

Bottle @ Cockney pub tasting. Medium head with medium duration. Color is pale golden. Aroma and taste are malt, fruits, flowers and hops.

bottle at home ... very pale yellow (little hazy ... but that will be my fault as i layed the bottle down in fridge) ...thin white head ... soft sweet lemon nose ... little fizzy ... soft light grassy lemon hop ... ok ...

[500ml bottle, gift from Jim - cheers!] Very pale gold, large white head. Sweet lager aroma, light grass & citrus flavour. In fact pretty light through and through. Would make a reasonable summer refresher.

cask @ Bon Accord. Glassy yellow, the color of a pale lager, not the nicest color. Scant lace. Aroma is unpleasantly phenolic and corn. The flavors are roasted corn and more sulphur. Lame.

UPDATED: JUN 25, 2010 Bottle sourced via Mybrewerytap.com. Blonde coloured beer with a white head. Honey, lemon zest, peaches and pears in the nose. Lime, bit of a citrus tang. Quite hoppy. Smooth, bitter finish.
