Bottle at home. Aroma is crisp fruity hops, grass, citrus, grapefruit. Flavour is lightly sweet and medium bitter. Body is light to medium. Very nice crisp hoppy refreshing session ale.

330 ml can, from Être Gourmet, Belgium. ABV is 3.6%. Pale golden colour, large to moderate white head. Uninteresting dusty and grainy aroma, hints of earthy hops. The flavour is better, decent citric and earthy hops throughout. Acceptable mouthfeel for its low ABV.

Can. Aroma is lightly hoppy, pale malts. Medium body. Flavour is malty and quite sweet, with a nice hop profile: some pine, grapefruit, fruity. Medium bitterness. Finishes bittersweet. Better when it has warmed up a bit. Very good for the abv.

Danke an minutemat. Wässrig bitterer, eher muffiger Beginn. Wenig Hopfen, süffig, trocken bitter. Dunkel bitter zum Ende, etwas brotig, mittellanger Abgang. 8/8/9/8/11/8

Tastes like an american pale, fairly bitter, but surprisingly well balanced for the low abv. Well made beer. Nice chinook hops dominate. Fresh 4 month old can from etre bier online.

Cask. Pours a clear amber with no head. Pretty much a light casket bitter. Flat with lemons and biscuits.

Cask at Southampton Arms. Pale blond colour with white bubbly head. Aroma is grassy hops, bit of citrus. Taste is quite grainy, bit of cream and the expected lemony bitterness. Not bad. Rerate at Euston Tap, Jan. 2015. Pale blond. Very wheaty, lots of grain. Soft and malty. Light fruity hoppiness and finished with a little citrus bitterness. Nice. Seems from my scores I am a bit more generous now.

24th July 2019, Shrewsbury CAMRA Beer Festival in St Mary's Church. Third of a cask pint, light haze to the golden body, white crown. I thought this a tad bland and uninteresting, some fruity elements, but nothing to get excited about.
