Bottled. Yellowish golden colour, big fluffy white head, that settles into mediumsized foamy head in a few minutes. Aroma is soap, some fruity hops as well as mild grassyness. Flavour is flowery hops along with some grassyness. Aftertaste has some mild fruityness in it.

500ml bottle from Sainsbury. Gold with thin off white head. Faintly dusty, citrus, nettle aroma. Quite hard in mouth. Decent condition, at least its not pasteurised. Not a lot of sediment. Good hop on end, bit sherberty, lemon/lime. Ultimately not bad. Still a bit fizzy.

Bottle Conditioned, 500ml, from Sainsburys, Banbury. Amber to gold with short white head. It could have fooled me about being Bottle Conditioned, it looks well and truly filtered. The summer beers are now out, designed to be served cold, with a tinny sharpness, but general lack of flavour. It’s grainy, malty and relatively dry, quite refreshing, but pretty average.

Bottle. Golden with a small head. Aromas are biscuit malts, citrus and yeast. Flavours are dry and yeasty with soft lemon. Light sweet grapefruit bitterness. Quite resinous lemon towards the finish. Spritzy on the palate. A good BCA.
