440ml can from lowcostbeer.com. Canned Aug-20. BBE Jan-21. Drank Feb-21. Look - slight hazy gold, small quite fizzy white head, recedes quickly. Nose - grains, sweet malts, citrus, grassy. Taste - sweet pale malts, some grass and grains, a nice citrus and fruity note. Palate - Light, moderate carbonation A very down to earth pale beer highlighting the core ingredients of barley and wheat. I want to love it but I don't.

Grainy beginning. Easy to drink, very soft with a malty touch. Fruity soft, not too deep with an easy to drink finish. Mild smooth, session brew.

440ml can: BB 13th Jan 2021. Drank at home during a Raclette evening on 13th Feb 2021, a month behind it's BBD. Mini haze to the golden body, white topping. Nose held a slight citrus leaning with a light malty trace, taste also had a mild citrus feel and a semi-sweet maltiness. Nothing to get excited about it, but an easy drinking brew all round.

Can at home in Hackney - sourced from Clapton Craft. Pours totally clear gold with a foamy, pure white head. Lovely biscuity pale malt character, light bitter straw, nips of yeast and grass. Light bodied with massaging carbonation. Well rounded finish, lightly sweet, touches of bitter hay, more mellow yeast expression, bread, biscuits. Some grassy bitterness in the aftertaste. Super drinkable. Nice amount of character given the ABV. The kind of beer where the more you drink of it the more you like it.
