500ml brown bottle from The Lighthouse in Manchester. Pours a very very very light straw yellow with virtually no head. Smells husky. Tastes sweet, with biscuity malts playing a lead with just the slightest hint of continental hops... Not getting a lot from this one. Extremely drinkable and absolutely nothing offensive about it. A good drinker for a hot day for sure, and I may pick it up again in the coming months for that purpose. Otherwise, not a lot going on here...

Light gold soft white head, good clarity. Grainy malt nose, soft honey. Balanced with just a faint hop bitterness.

Disappointing. Pours a crystal clear dark yellow with medium carbonation and practically no head. Lacing is very minimal. Aroma is grass and sweet malt like a pale lager....yummmm. Taste is like just like Cheerios: a sort of dry oat and bread taste. Overall a little too sweet. Only briefly can you taste a hint of balancing hops. It is refreshing but too much like a pale lager. Not for me.

Pours a pale golden with an OK fluffy white head that coats the glass here and there. Classic pale lager aroma of sweet malt and mown grass. Taste is sugar water upfront followed by pale malt and some mild hoppiness. Pretty good but just a little too sweet.

Shared this one with my friend Gyurke in Wiesbaden. Pours a clear golden yellow color. Aromas of grass, cheerios, and a touch of flowers. Flavor is kinda sweet to start, citrusy finish with some hop notes.

Bottle. Sweet citrus and light lemongrass nose, nice clean hoppiness. Clear, very pale yellow body with a sparkling, fluffy bright white head. Creamy with some vanilla and light bitterness. Lighter-bodied than I like my Helle, but the malt is solid, the citrus and grassy overtones meld together well, and in the end there’s an undeniable feeling of satisfaction. Clean and super refreshing - about as good as you can get!
