Citrus is very faint, pine is more up front, but is also quite faint. Strong spicy, grassy presence in the flavour, and a light to medium bitterness. I expected much more from the description. This is nothing but a run of the mill mildly hoppy amber ale.

Tap at Bishops Arms Östersund. Watery old hops taste. Not much rebellious about this.

Bottle from ASDA, Halifax. Pre 2017 bottle. Golden-blonde with a thin head. Fair, but understated within its style. Has a light pale ale texture and taste.

Bottle: Deep golden, hazy, small - but stable - white head; mild to moderate sweet-bitter nose of citric and herbal hops, supported by some secret pale malt with a tinge of toasted malt; moderate sweet-bitter flavour, medium bodied and soft; lingering and drier herbal-piney finish, again balanced by some malt. Not great, but surely good...
