Bottle split at Chris & Ruths pre GBBF Shin Dig, cheers for all the shares, 05/08/17. Lightly hazed golden blonde with a decent off white covering. Nose is pale malts, grains, straw, stale bread ... not much going on! Taste comprises much the same, papery, light straw and grainy flavours. Medium bodied, moderate carbonation, semi drying close. Dull ... just nothing doing in this one.

Bottle from the Vineyard, Belfast. Appearance - golden with a bit of dirty brown in there too. Nose - digestive biscuit and a touch of lemon curd. Taste - honey and lemon. Again light biscuit lurking. Palate - light to medium bodied. Creamy and dry finish. Overall - decent scoop even if not quite on style. Maybe a bit like a Czech pils?
