Hazy gold beer, thin pale cream colour head. Palate is light and semi dry, reasonable fine carbonation. Dry pale malts, no wheat character. Clear apricot but really not that sweet. Mildly bitter floralness before a smooth and semi dry finish. It’s a clean beer but the bitterish apricot is not my cup of char.
