Keg at the Bat and Ball, Holmer Green, 15/01/22. Clear golden, carbonation evident, good sized lasting white crown. Nose is pale malts, cereals, grains, paper. Taste comprises pale malts, toasted grains, light citrus, cereals, grass. Medium bodied, light spritzy carbonation, semi drying close. Refreshing macro affair ... fine for the show genre.

[44cl can from my local Co-Op, all they had left due to a sudden heat wave.] Pretty much a standard Euro-lager, pale amber with a loose white head; sweet aroma with a whiff of corn syrup; quite malty taste; and a harsh grassy finish. Refreshing, but so is cold water.

660ml bottle. Pours a dull gold with a decent white head. Not much aroma although a slight nose of sweetened malt. Taste is similar with a not unpleasant mild sweetened malt flavour but a little dull. Mild carbonation. Goes down very easily so a decent larger choice on a sunny day if you donโt want anything complex. Update: tried again and enjoyed slightly more than the above would suggest. I think it is one of the better commercial pale lagers in the UK although still lacks some flavour.
