Bottled 500ml. -Nice pale amber coloured, small to medium sized off-white head, the nose is quite similar to Sunset. Moderate malty, fruity and caramel with notes of lemony hops and dry bitter finish. Still thereβs lack of body.

Bottle: Slightly unclear, deep golden to light amber coloured, small and stable off-white layer with a little lace, distinctive, almost peppery hoppy nose, underpinned by fruity malt and toasted malt; moderate bitter-sweet flavour, light bodied; lingering dryish spicy hoppy finish, backed by traces of toasted malt. Good, decent stuff........
