Pretty typical light ale looks. Very sweet, almost raspberry cereals. Very fruity and a little tart. Nice and sweet to begin with in the mouth, strawberries and dusty grass. These easy notes are quickly taken over by some wholly English hoppiness. Something maybe a tiny bit sterile toward the finish. A good summer session.
