Crystal clear. Very pale straw blond colour. Aroma has some citrus and floral tones. Mild tasting. Light citrus. A dry finish. Lacking in depth and complexity.

Gravity dispense at Craft 100, CBC Clapham, 18/09/14. Clear golden with a moderate off white covering. Nose is bitter citric peel, light smoke, orange, earthy, the smell when you singe your arm hairs on a hob but in not such a bad way! Taste comprises melon, light peach, straw, tangerine. Medium body, moderate carbonation, semi drying close. Ok.

Craft 100 at Craft Clapham. Cask. Lightly hazy gold beer, few pale cream colour bubbles. Palate is light and mildly crisp. Light semi sweet malts, touch of floral sweetness. Light citrus runs throughout. Trace of tinned tropical fruits before the semi dry finish. All right.

Bottled, thanks oh6gdx! Almost clear golden, smallish head. Grassy nose with whispers of strawberry and dough. Dryish with slender body and sparkling, light mouthfeel. Grassy and spicy, notes of custard. Resiny bitter finish.

500 ml bottle. Pours a clear, pale yellow colour with a thin white head that laces. Fruity. grainy aroma with some citrus and grass. Malty, grainy flavour with citrus and grass leading to a very bitter, dry, hoppy finish. Light body with a thin, oily texture and soft carbonation.
