This is a dry beer, which derives it’s soft, complex maltiness by cold fermentation with a German yeast (as hoppy as an IPA but more elegant).

Bottle at home. No fizz when popping the cap....It pours hazy golden with a small bubbly head. The nose soft, malt-driven, fresh bread, hay, light sweetness and earth. The taste is bitter, bready, toasted grass, grain, citrus peel, spice and biscuit with a dry, earthy finish. Medium body and low carbonation. Actually pretty tasty, just a shame about the lack of carbonation...

500ml bottle from Great Grog. Pours clear gold, thick white head. Aromas are honey, straw, something herbal and lemony. Taste is light sweet, more lemon herbal bitterness. Light sweet finish. Nice.

Bottle from Cornelius. Hazy golden body with tiny yeast flecks. Faint carbonation. Thick white head. Aroma of straw, earth, white bread and marzipan. Subtle flavour of soft, sweet malt and earthy hops. Lemony finish. Tastes like a cross between a Pilsner and a Pale Ale. Medium body with an oily texture. Light fizz. A nice beer, but (for me) not one of Luckie Ales’ finest.
