Can from Appellation Wines. Appearance - golden with a very light haze. Generous white head. Nose - late grapefruit, lemon and Spangles. Taste - initial, lemon and grapefruit, then rough toffee underbelly. Palate - light bodied. Dry, slightly challenging middle. Dry finish. Overall - good, even though there's a challenging aspect to it.

Clear golden beer, thick white head. Light zesty hop smell. Flavour is pretty mellow, all told. There's a bit of sharp citrus up front but it mellows with a little sweetness, a little bitter hop. Mild, bittersweet aftertaste. It's not exciting but it's decent.
