Bottle, thanks pivnizub. Big citrus hop aroma. Hazy amber, off-white head. Fairly thin bisquit malt base, a hint of napkin, covered by a good bortion citrussy and light earthy hop notes. Dry quick finish, light metallic retronasal. Light, a bit fizzy body. Fresh summer-ale.

(bottle) My sample is fairly hazy (has been carried today), orange-golden colour with a short creamy, slightly off-white layer. Slightly sweet, lemony and slightly piney hops aroma. Bitter flavour with slight sweet edges, light bodied but not too slim nor watery; smooth carbonation. Soft cara-malty taste, subtle fruity (lemon) with a good dash of fruity and resiny hops. Dry and bitter, slim but nevertheless quite lasting hoppy finish with a lemony aftertaste and traces of caramel-malty sweetness. Decent and tasty light Ale.
