Bottle (from Ales by Mail). Golden colour with a small white foamy head, which leaves some lace. Aroma is floral, some mild herbal, earthy and a bit grainy tones. Flavour is citrus, some floral tones, biscuity and bready malts and some mild herbs in the finish. Easy going and easy to drink.

330ml bottle with the ABV now at 3.5%. Clear gold, small white head, nice carbonation. Aroma is malts, lemon, some tangerine, very clean. Taste is biscuit malts, citrus, again quite clean. Light bodied but refreshing. I think the 4% version would be better though, it lacks a little bite.

33cl bottle from Beer52. Very thin white head. Hazy golden pour. Light bitterness. Not bad for the low abv.

Many thanks for this Ale to dantomlinson. Kolejny raz chmiel Citra, tym razem w porownaniu z Adnamsem jest go wiecej w nosie niz w smaku. Piwo jest delikatne, zlotej barwy piany sredniej i srednio trwalej, dominuje ta delikatna cytrusowosc citry nad slodowoscia, ktora jest totalnie minimalna.

Thin white head quickly left a collar on a translucent pale golden, finely carbonated body. Zesty aroma with peach & pith. Medium bodied, sharp on the tongue with an abrupt clean back. Peach, bitter hops, grass, lemon & pithy tastes.

Light bodied (not much malts here), moderate carbonation, soft mouthfeel. Citrus flavour too, with earthy and piney and fairly sharp bittering hops in the finish.
