500ml bottle from a supermarket in Torquay. Active yeast produces a creamy dense clean white head. Carbonation is lively, fresh, soft and attractive. Beer is light, zesty, citric fresh, with a gentle sweetness in the middle and a mild flowery finish. Some earthy bitterness lingering. A delicious drinking beer - exactly the sort of thing I like.

May 24, 2007 Cask conditioned - gravity dispense - Cambridge BF. A golden coloured bitter. The aroma is light with a flowery saaz feel to it, and a hint of fart. The taste is light, but reasonably well balanced. Quaffable, but ultimately quite dull.

May 23, 2007 A pale, golden yellow coloured beer with a thickish white head. A light, hoppy nose, zesty lemon leads the citrus fruit charge, with grapefruit and orange, and a touch floral as well. The taste is is dry and hoppy, zesty citrus fruits again, then a touch floral which leads into a more sweeter, buttery malt flavour. The finish is dry, zesty and a little fizzy. (Cask - 2007 Cambridge Beer Festival).

Feb 14, 2007 Aroma fresh and zesty with some lemonade notes. Pours pale gold with a fluffy white head. Well hopped with good citrus and a surprising depth of flavour for such a low alcohol beer. vERY NICE.

Jan 4, 2007 Cask (gravity dispense) at St Albans Beer Festival, September 2006. Not really too much to say about this beer, but, in many ways, it’s a quintessential English ordinary bitter. Amber colour. Touches of dry malt and tangy hop, underpinned by a light, thirst-quenching bitterness. Restrained but well balanced. As one might expect, its quite light bodied. Better suited to a long session in a pub than detailed analysis, and none the worse for that.
