Bottle split at the Tilt Tasting, Bingohame Convention VI, thanks to SHIG and Bladdock 02/07/22. Golden pour with an off white cap that dissipates to a swirl. Nose is grass, pale malts, straw, faint citric nip. Taste comprises soft malts, straw, lemon rind, grains. Medium bodied, fine carbonation, semi drying close. Passable golde.

2nd July 2022, both SHIG and I each took a 500ml bottle of this to the Tilt tasting to share with the Ratebeerian community and to give some their first beer from County Fermanagh. Decent white head on the golden body, an OK blend of grassy hops and semi-sweet maltiness. Not as exciting as I'd hoped, but it was fine; being surrounded by some 'Big Hitters' didn't do it any favours either.

Bottle shared at Tilt. Cheers! Pours pours clear gold with a small, frothy white head. Lightly sweet, a little British yeast, mellow citrus notes. Light bodied with fine, massaging carbonation. Alright balance to finish. Not bad.

500ml bottle delivered from KWM, Kilkeel and drunk at home. Pours dark gold, a little bit hazy with a good bit of visible yeast and a massive off-white head. Smells of butterscotch, toasty malt, light grassy hop. Sweet taste with some gritty bitter/sour citrus peel notes toward the finish. Medium carbonation. It's okay for a fairly malt-led blond.
