375ml bottle. Clear, orange, dark golden colour with small to average, frothy, half-way lasting, minimally lacing, white head. Weak, grainy and slightly strawy, pale malty aroma, leafy hoppy overtones with a touch of tea, minimalyl doughy, yeasty overtones as well. Taste is slightly grainy-bready and minimally spicy malty with some residual sweetness, minimally piney and leafy hoppy, hints of tea, a touch brown bread crust, an even weaker touch of forest honey.
Watery texture, smooth, simultaneously minimally dry palate, medium, mildly prickly carbonation.
Clean, light, drinkable - not too bad.

Can, best by June 29th 2019.
It pours a clear gold with an ample head of foam.
Big corny notes in the smell, hints of vegetables, wee bit of bitterness.
Taste is below that of XXXX Gold. Too much corn,vegetal, metallic.
Body is not better than the XXXX despite its higher abv.
Pretty poor beer.

Bottle, thanks Riba! Dull golden body, fleeting white head. Corny, dusty aroma. Soft rubbery corny/dusty taste, perfumey, mild bitterish touch. Meh.

On tap. Pours gold. Lots of sharp vinegar acidity, little sweet syrup, not much of anything else. It's pretty bad.
