3.5 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 13/20
Effulgent blonde. Thin yet rocky and persistent bottle-conditioned foam. Lovely bouquet of herbaceous, peppery, lemon-rind hops and subtler notes of honeydew melon, minerals, grass, toasted crackers, and honeycomb. Strong scent of plastic, as well. Soft and snug carbonation. Juicy hop-derived surge of lemon pulp is quelled by a stark, almost salty, palate-scrubbing wash of minerals and vividly defined toasty pils malt. Succulent hop flavors continue onward, yielding an elegant medley of flowers and honeydew melon which provides wonderful contrast to the firm foundation of malt and minerals. Remains beautifully balanced at the finish, with a scratchy edge of grassy, herbal hop bitterness prevailing gracefully over the crisp structure. Aside from the curious note of plastic and puttylike yeast, this is clean and supremely quaffable. And bottle-conditioned, to boot? Ya gotta love this brewery!

50cl bottle from Sainsburys. Straw coloured with a loose white head, slightly hazy and with coarse carbonation; dusty grain aroma; some honey to the flavour, but an underlying impression of corn syrup and cardboard; and a rather unpleasant vegetative bitterness to the finish. I’m not impressed.
