Clear and ragged lemony nose, solid dark yellow clarity with no distinctive head once settles. Hurried initial taste with an even spread afterward, continuing the citrus fully with lingering zest. A refreshing effort that doesnt need to be rushed.

A - Nice light citrus and floral notes A - Light gold with thin white head T - Tinny bitter, but not much else P - Medium to thin with full carbonation O - Underwhelming...

Bottled. A golden beer with an off-white head and lacing. The aroma is sharply hoppy with grassy notes and that tell tale paper. Bitter in the mouth. Obvious pasteurisation again. A beer of ins and outs.

500ml bottle. Pours a light amber with a nice large white head. Not much on the nose, some faint malt and a hint of hops. Sweet and grassy, with hoppy, strong bitter finish. Enough body for the strength and a good amount of carbonation.

Bottled, pasteurised, 500ml from Booths, Poulton, Lancs. Gold with white head. Quite a sharp metallic, CO2 note initially, but this smooths out to a reasonable, fruity malty beer, not great depth but an orange like hop shows through. Ok.

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.
