Not sure if it’s a lager or an ale but I really enjoyed this. Very refreshing with a pleasant aftertaste. Also very fizzy so beware if drinking with large meals!

ChrisOs Easter Tasting. Pale gold beer - clear. Short bubbly white head. Light dry palate. Smooth pale malt. Mild citrus. Like the feel of the champagne yeast in this one - comes over as a lager. Decent.
2.8 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 5/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 11/20
Bottle at Chriso’s Easter tasting 2012. It pours straw yellow, with a thick white head. The nose is hay, straw, grass, lime and sherbet. The taste is hay, straw, yeast, spice, citrus pith, cereal and grass, with a clean, dry finish. Light to medium body, moderate carbonation and foamy mouth-feel. Clean and crisp. Nothing to dislike really, just a touch unexciting.

Bottle from Waitrose 08.12.11 consumed 28.03.12 Light gold in colour, nice nose bit of fresh exotic fruit, reminds me a little of Kipling, really good nose. Taste does not quite live up to the nose but it isn’t bad, some soft fruit, sweetish malts, tiny bit dry, its not bad at all and when I finished I was looking for a bit more from the bottle, sadly it was gone.
