440ml can. Clear pale golden colour, some suspended sediment, small white head which quickly disappeared. Aroma of bready malts, honey, grassy hops. Taste is quite sweet bready malt, honey like, hops are grassy and kind of in the background, faint hint of citrus. Light-medium body, oily texture, fine carbonation. Surprisingly sweet malty lager from Cloudwater, could do with a bit more hop presence but nonetheless a pretty decent beer.

Can at L42. It pours yellow with a medium white head. The aroma is soft, sweet, creamy, paper, grainy, bread and cornbread. The taste is crisp, dry, sweet, sticky, sugary, creamy, sticky, cornbread, slick and oily action with a drying finish. Medium body and moderate carbonation. A bit sticky and sweet for my liking. Fair lagerbier.

Can split at L42,14/03/17. Clear light golden with a decent off white cap. Nose is pale malts, sweet, citric peel, vanilla, bread dough. Taste comprises toasted malts, grains, spice, straw, lemon drizzle, toasted grains. Medium bodied, fine carbonation, semi drying close. Decent enough ’craft’ Helles but a touch overly sweet.

Can. Light haze on this yellowish gold beer, thin pale cream colour head. Palate is light, mildly dry and has decent fine carbonation. Sweet pale malts, modest lager character. Mellow floral hop, a bare whisper of citrus. Smooth finish. Surprisingly lacking in hop for a Cloudwater beer, it really could have done with some to balance that sweet pale malt. Okay.
