500ml bottle bought as part of a delivery from the brewery and drunk at home. Dark gold and hazy with almost no head. Light malty aroma. Sweet taste with some bitterness near the finish. Very flat and watery body. Doesn't taste like a Vienna, and doesn't really taste like much else either. Not a great beer.

Bottle ordered from the brewery. Aroma combines floral notes with a touch of spice and caramel. Cloudy light amber. Creamy white head soon really thins out. Medium-heavy bitter. Citrus and malty spice. Underlying biscuity malts. But somehow manages to overly grainy yet also limp. Light-medium bodied. Slick. Average carbonation. Long dry astringent finish. Not great. Not offensive either. Just rather basic. More like a golden ale/amber ale hybrid than anything else.

Bottle from Darkplace Colyton. Surprisingly pale yellow, huge fluffy white head. Highly carbonated, sour-malty flavours with a yeasty touch and some citrusy hops.
