Can shared in London - thanks to Clon. Pours clear orange-gold with a creamy, white head. The nose holds some crispy wheat bread, some dried lemon, hay. Light sweet flavour with doughy wheat bread, low bitterness, more citrus peel. Light bodied with fine carbonation. Simple finish, some sweet pae bread, wheat, minimal hops. Enjoyable, if a little basic.

Light florals and some malt. Not a lot else here. Pours golden amber like apricots and has a bit of a tin like finish. Can at El Camino taco joint.

At a tasting, thanks, almost no head, lightly hazy lightish orange color, biscuity, candy, vanila aroma, with just a hint of flowers and yeast, soapy flowery flavor, with fruity maltiness, light sourness, quite smooth. Nice but not that great.

Can sample at a tasting at Dancing Camel. Thanks Alon. Slightly hazy yellow. Aroma is a bit oxidized, with fruitiness, a bit of cardboard, a bit of spiciness. Sweetish spicy and fruity flavor with cardboard, citrus, bitterish finish.
