Pretty much a clear deep gold beer, yeah could be amber in a certain light. Small bubbly cream colour head. Smooth malts, mildly dry but with a light creamy sweetness and a bare trace of caramel. The hoppage is soft pine into a juicy citrus, slightly ripe orange, mandarin and tangerine. A very light touch of peel bitterness. A little candy fruits add welcome colour. Light and semi dry finish. Tidy amber and with the usual Thornbridge drinkability factor. Nice.

Bottled 500ml (Alko web)
Amber colour, small beige head. Subtle caramelly-resiny aroma with hints of honey. Light-bodied. Caramalt, pine, touch of citrus with English malt vibes. Typical easy but balanced Thornbridge, a bit more interesting than many of their recent ones.
