Can. Blonde with a head. Has a high bitterness factor, including malts, to a citrus heavy hoppy ale.

330ml can. Poured a hazy light golden colour with a mostly lasting frothy white head. The aroma is grainy malt, chemical citrus, light hop. The flavour is moderate to light bitter with a light, watery, light citrus, mineral, light dry hop bitter palate. Medium to light bodied with average carbonation.

330ml can, thanks FatPhil. Yellow straw pour, clean and with some white foam on the top. Soft malty nose, citrus notes. Tastes simple, lemon peels, bitter and citric. Light malty grains in the back. Quite simple session ale, does what it does. OK.

Can, thanks fatphil. Pours golden. Aroma and flavor are sweet and bitter, fruity, citrusy, grassy. Feels quite thin and empty. Overall: drinkable. --- Beer merged from original tick of Best Friend on 09 Mar 2019 at 19:08 - Score: 5. Original review text: Ty fatphil.
