Bottled. A hazy golden beer with a thin beige head. The aroma has notes of malt, citrus, and hops. The flavor is sweet and plainly malty. Thanks fonefan for sharing.

50cl bottle from Waitrose, Cambridge. Straw with a dense white head; aroma of honey and light floral hops; dusty, earthy, malt flavours with an underlying caramel body; lightly bitter finish. Pleasant enough, but rather boring.

Bottle, shared by fonefan. It pours a slightly hazy golden-orange body with a small off-white head. Fruity and malty nose, quite citrusy, with a cellarish note. Fruity, citrusy flavor with a roasted touch and a hint of cellar. Medium body. Citrusy, bitter finish with some chalky notes. Pleasant bitterness that lasts. A quite decent, quaffable and quenching golden ale. (080822)
