440ml can; BB 5th Feb 2021. Drank at home on 4th May 2020, during the virus Lock In. Lager like in appearance, clean golden with a short lived snow white head. Hoppy and fairly dry in nature, citrus notes in both the nose and taste.

24/4/2020. Sample courtesy of the SHIG, cheers! Pours clear bright gold with a bubbly white head. Aroma of citrus, pine, hops, malt and grass. A bit perfumed too. Medium sweetness and light bitterness. Moderate body, average carbonation. But more bitterness to finish. It’s ok.

[44cl can from Beer52 - brewery number 1500.] A bright amber pour with a loose white head; grassy aroma; sweet citursy taste, mainly lime and lemon; and some cream soda and quinine to finish; but overall a decent Pale Ale of the modern kind.
