330ml bottle. Cloudy ochre golden colour with average to huge, frothy, diminishing, white head. Citrusy and herbal aroma with bath salt character, notes of lavender, rosemary, thyme. Taste is dry to bitter, sourish, herbal notes are way more cautious. Hmmm...

Bottle from Sourced St Pancrass. Hazy grapefruit body with medium head. Nose is herbs, spices, grassy, medicinal. Taste is bitter and hoppy up front with overarching grassy and citrus flavours. Lots of spices and herbs in there. Not really my thing though.

330ml bottle (Snow@ChrisO)
Very perfumey aroma - banana like a hefeweizen, very fruity. Pale and hazy-to-cloudy. Taste is also wheaty. I think this is better filed as a wheat beer than SHV. It’s a simply drinker, but it disappoints a little after the aroma.

Bottle at ChrisO Snow Tasting, thanks to Colin. It pours cloudy pale yellow with a medium white head. The nose is wheat, spice, chlorine, strong herbal notes and dough. The taste is wheat, lemon pith, herbal, weak spice and faint tartness with some bitterness in the finish Medium body and fine carbonation. Pretty interesting and well executed.

Bottle at Chriso Snow Tasting, from an offie in Hackney via Rilester, 20/01/13. Hazed light yellow with a white head that clears to edgeing and filmage. Nose carries herbs, clove, lemon, yeast, orange pith. Taste comprises light wheat, herbs, spice, citrus, bready notes, orange. Medium bodied, soft carbonation, light bittern notes in the finish. A really decent effort from a new brewery and lots of flavour for 3.4%!

Bottle at the ChrisO Snow Tasting, London - big thanks to Colin for this brew. Pours lightly cloudy yellow with a fine, white cream head. Big herb nose. Medium sweet flavor with light yeast, more herbs, some wheat. Light in body with average carbonation. Moderately sweet finish with lingering herbal bite. Very pleasant overall, though the character is somewhat mellow.
