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!

Can split at L42, from O.N.Line, 26/07/17. Light hazed on a pale yellow pour with a decent off white head collapsing to a swirl. Nose is lemon squash, straw, grains, light hop, melon trace. Taste comprises melon, straw, grains, orange peel, tangerine, faint spice. Medium bodied, fine carbonation, semi drying close with a light hop dusting. Fine ... clean drinking and refreshing.

cannette 33cl. Dorée/paille, col blanc fin. Arôme au nez finement fruité et citronné, le tout est un peu ’watery’ avec un bouquet coriandre qui tend à prendre le dessus. Palais est malté pils, froment avec encore ce léger effet citronné qui apporte peu et est complété par un effet coriandre nettement plus devant. Le tout est ok, léger mais vraiment rien qui ne brille pour la sortir du lot.

Light straw, slight haze, big frothy white head.
Aroma - Light spicy herbal, very soft orange, bit of citrus, light nose
Taste - Light pale malt, soft orange, very light herbal, bit spicy, soft flavour, getting the wheat, taste better than aroma
Palate - Soft carb, light body, little oily, light sweet. Good palate. Finish is slightly dry, clean.
Overall - Very refreshing, nice wheat lager.
