Misty light amber ale with a moderate off-white head. Decent retention. Nose: biscuit malts, fruity esters, floral hop. Very light body. Soft carbonation. Taste: light sweet, medium bitter. Fruity, floral. Long hoppy ending. Drinkable enough.

Clear golden colour, médium sized, smoothy-creamy white head; aroma of floral, grassy, biscuity notes; bittersweet taste with toasted, caramel and floral notes; rather a bitter than an IPA

Can with a nitro widget as if it were 1997. Nose is grain, faint floral . Taste is the weird dry, dusty nitro taste, malt, metalic, dishwater, soap, chemical, no hops at all. It's absolutely disgusting. I've managed less than 10 mouthfuls and had to pour away. The better reviews below seem to be from kegs or bottles, in the can I had it was horrific.

Can shared in Hackney - picked up at Waitrose. Pours totally clear gold with a tight, foamy white head. English yeast in the nose, doughy white bread, some white grape. Light to medium sweet flavour, more English yeast, hay, dough. Light bodied with fine to average carbonation. OK balance in the finish, vague citrus, more doughy white bread. So so.
