Sample courtesy of Grumbo. Thanks chap. Golden yellow appearance with a surprisingly lively, large white head that takes a while to subside. Pleasantly sweet, floral, no off-notes, medium carbonation, nice strength to it. OK.

Sample courtesy of Grumbo, cheers Graham! Golden colour, white foam head and aroma of malt, honey & caramel hints. Taste is sweet, malt, grain, sugary, papery, with light carbonation. Medium bodied, soft carbonation, sweet papery finish. Quite sweet and bland.
