Can split at the Grand Reunion Tasting at MM, thanks to Fergus, 20/05/21. Very lightly hazed golden yellow with a white cap. Nose is pale malts, fresh breads, light herb, grains, lemon tinged straw. Taste comprises pale and bready malts, touch of honey, grass, cereals, toasted grains, crackers. Medium bodied, fine carbonation, light drying close. Solid refreshing logger bier.

Can shared in High Wycombe - cheers to Fergus. Pours mostly clear gold with a bubbly, white head. Light to medium sweet flavour with lovely biscuity character, some dry cereal, a little bitter straw. Light bodied with fine to average carbonation. Biscuits and bready malts in the finish, soft bitterness, a little dough. Drinks good.

Can at home. Fine clear gold and large white head. Nose is doughy and some peppery spice. Tastes of yeast, light fruit, peppery. Zippy palate. Lingering mouthfeel. Quite good.

Can. CW online. Misty pale gold, with a thin, firm, lasting white head. Nose has bready grain. Well done crust. Peppery hop. Pronounced yeast notes. Taste has a doughy, bready sweetness, turning a little dry and leafy, grassy bitter. Easy drinking with foamy carbonation. Light to light medium body. Grassy, slightly earthy finish. Nice one.

Pours clear gold into a shaker. Bright white head with good retention recedes leaving scant sheets to coat surface. Sweet malt and corn aromas. Crisp with sweet caramel and bread upfront turning to mild sourdough before the lasting earth finish.
