Bottle from Grain Schooner. Hazy golden body with a thin white head that holds. Steady carbonation. Aroma of wheat, lemon and straw. Flavour of plain crisps and lemon with a very faint plastic note. Thin to medium body with a smooth texture. Soft fizz. I really like Torrside’s beers but I’m not too keen on this one - it’s very lightly hopped and there’s a slight flaw.
