Sunshine in a glass! Equinox is a refreshing wheat lager designed with lazy sunny days in mind. Hazy bright yellow, it’s a smooth and refreshing beer with a light dry finish. Orange and lemon peel are added to the brew kettle for a burst of citrus, along with some ground coriander to give a hint of spice on the end – tantalizingly quaffable!

Level 42 Bottleshare. Thanks to Colin for the can. Very hazy gold beer, good pale cream colour head. Palate is airy and semi dry, decent fine carbonation. Light and sweetish wheaty malts. Smooth floral mid. Modest orange and tangerine. Light finish brings mild floral bitterness. It's okay.
