330ml can. Poured a crystal clear golden colour with a mostly lasting frothy white light and lots of bubbles. The aroma is malt, mineral, light citrus fruit hop. The flavour is moderate bitter, light sweet, with a light, crisp, malt, light fruit, light dry floral hop bitter palate. Medium bodied with average carbonation.

Keg at BD Tower Hill. Pale gold. Kinda cheesy yeasty aroma. Creamy white head thins out. Very light bitterness before some slightly sickly sweetness comes through. Medium bodied. Thin. Airy mouthfeel thanks to soft carbonation. Relatively a abrupt finish. Not keen on this. Doesn't deliver the crispness the blurb promises.

On tap at The Hop Stuff Taproom Ashford. Clear pale gold colour. Lasting white head. Malty some diacetyl Czech style lager. Better in the mouth. Some lemon on finish. Less malty in the mouth decent hop on the finish. OK.

Keg at the Priory Arms, Lambeth. A shade deeper than lagery yellow. Lots of visible carbonation and a smallish foamy white head. Floral aroma accompanying the raw grain and lemon peel scent. Tastes sweet, a touch saccharine with lasting honey and rock candy notes on the tongue. Heavily carbonated. It's not a beer I can get excited about.
