High Wycombe House Warming. Thanks to Paul. Bright clear pale gold beer, thin white head. Palate is light, dry and fairly crisp. Very light malts, some lager character. Mild floral hop, whisper of citrus. Light semi dry finish. It’s not that bad.

Bottle shared in High Wycombe - thanks to Scopey. Pours clear, pale yellow with a creamy, white head. Light paper in the nose, some cereal, dry hay. A little sugary, with simple cereal, hints of paper, white bread. Light bodied with average carbonation. Sweet, sugary finish, more white bread, cereal and paper. So so.

Can at Africa Oil Week. It pours clear pale yellow with a small white head. The aroma is sweet, creamed corn, cornbread, grassy and straw. The taste is crisp, clean, white bread, touch of corn, straw and grass with a short, dry finish. Light body and moderate, foamy carbonation. Really not so bad for a light lagerbier.
