Can from Rheged. Appearance - amber with a nice fluffy head. Nose - lemon sorbet and lemon zest. Mountain herbal thing. Taste - tonnes more lemon. Getting into a hint of a wold yeast note. Yoghurt at least. Palate - light bodied with a creamy yet tangy texture and a long dry tangy finish. Overall - not quite right, methinks.

26th Jan 2018; 330ml can into a 'Good People' of Birmingham, Alabama pint glass at home. Clean and clear amber pour, until I tip the last drops out of the can, then some sediment arrived to mist up the look, huge off-white topping. Piney hops with some citrusy friends rule the aroma, taste also hop dominant. Light malty undertones try to balance out the hop bitterness, not actually doing so; semi-bitter finish and a decent dry/bitter brew overall.
