Rerate 2016, tap at Highbury. Aroma has loads of lemon. Touch of biscuity malt. Taste is very lemony. Sherbert, almost lemonade shandy like in a way. Very easy drinking. Nice. Great taste for low strength. Initial rating from 2011. Draught at the Rake. Very light blond colour. Looks very watery. Small whote head that stays all the way down the glass. Not much aroma, maybe just slightly herbal. Taste is very crisp with dominant herbal character. Bit like a sparkling mineral water. Texture is strange, no bubbles but bit prickly/spritzy.

Thuis uit een flesje. Zeer licht en zeer helder van (gouden) kleur. Ik ruik citroen. De smaak is toch wat vlak, wat meer pit (hop) was lekker geweest.

Clear pale straw golden colour, small frothy white head, quickly diminishing, minimal lacing. Aroma light pale malts, lemon, lime. Taste light sweet and bitter and light citrus acidic, lemony, lemon grass, lime leaves. Mild sweetbitter aftertaste, bit grassy, hint of pepper. Light body, watery texture, soft carbonation, pleasant light pale ale but overall a lesser Thornbridge.

Very pale golden color. Frothy white head. Very herbaceous nose with lemon. Light body, firm bitterness, modestly dry. Very refreshing well made golden ale. I was hesitant base on the color but this is a great summer beer
