A light pale ale that whilst low on ABV is high when it comes to flavour.

330ml can. Slightly cloudy straw colour, small white head, minimal retention. Light citrus aroma with a slight grainy background; not much going on. Taste is citrusy but a bit wishy washy. Light bodied, moderate carbonation.

For a low abv beer it ok, but it lacks any real body, and the hops aren't that strong either so there's just not much to it. I would say its definitely not high in flavour like the description suggests.

27/12/2022. Can at the ITFC Christmas beer share. From Flavourly.com. Pours clear very pale gold with a frothy white head. Aroma of grass, citrus, lemon, rubber, herb, touch of tropical fruit and banana. Medium sweetness, very light bitterness, touch of tart. Light body, watery, quite fizzy. A refresher if nothing else.

Pours a hazy deep straw with a frothy white head, and a muted citrus hop aroma. It's low in ABV, but not in taste, offering a nice refreshing and zesty mouthfeel, brut like, and a mellow fruit flavour combining citrus and grapes, and a decent dry bitterness. Easy drinking and quaffable without being too challenging

Thin beige head left an unclear body with an undefined, coloured watery body. Funky fruity aroma. Medium bodied with minimal carbonation & a limp back. Dull tastes with unknown fruit, syrup & Alka seltzer? Bizarre
