Light gold colour. They put a lmone in it and that is mostly what I smell. The lemon overrides what it otherwise a sweet, honeyish taste with biscuity notes.

Draught at the brewpub. Hazy pale yellow. Medium sweet with clean mouthfeel. The honey flavour is very slight, only adding a hint of flavour and no sweetness. Wheat flavour is evident. The low hop rate and bitterness along with clean malt character makes it perhaps quite a neutral beer.
