COMMERCIAL DESCRIPTION
Available brewery conditioned and cold filtered in 500ml bottles. Cask: Special - 2011 JDW Autumn Beer Festival.
"English Halcyon malts are used together with lager malts. Golding hops provide the bitterness and aroma. The result is a highly distinctive light, golden ale similar in character to a full bodied Czech lager."

lawman357 (93) - Missouri, USA - OCT 2, 2012
Very nice, initially skunky that quickly faded to a typically lager/ale nose. Gold and clear with a speedily dissipating head leaving a scant lacing. Very crisp, remains lively on the palate with lightly sweet/sour tones. Honestly, reminds me of a Heineken with character.

CanCrusher (309) - Ilirska Bistrica, SLOVENIA - SEP 26, 2012
Bottle. Amber orange colour with small off white head, that sits down to a nice lacing quickly. A bit skunky smell from bottle, when opened, but it disappear quickly. Otherwise aroma of grass, herbs and grapefruit. Moderate bitter taste turns into heavy bitter aftertaste with long finish duration.

Pyobon (725) - Sydney, AUSTRALIA - SEP 25, 2012
(bottle) Clear golden with big white head. Aroma is gassy hops and some bready malt. Medium body and well carbonated, almost fizzy. A little shallow in foretaste, but not unpleasant, largely light maltiness, but transitioning to a solid bitter finish. Overall quite pleasant but not very well balanced.

Pours light amber, aroma is biscuit/malt. Low carbonation, disappearimg head. Flavor is malt and bitter, with a chewy mouthfeel and a lasting malty finish. Thought it could use more character.
