A light gold beer brewed with the ingredients of a lager, but most definitely an ale. Highly refreshing with a lovely subtle hop flavour and aroma, reminiscent of a pilsner.

Appearance: Hazy golden color with a white head. Light lacing.
Aroma: Sour fruity and a bit acidic.
Palate: Medium body. Moderate sweet and a moderate bitterness. Soft carbonation. A bit dry.
Taste: Mild malty, sour fruity and fresh acidic.
Overall impression: Ehhh a beer with a touch of madness. I am not sure it was ment to be like this. And when reading my rating you might think this was bad. It was not. Nice, fresh and tasty actually. But very weird.
Personal stats: On tap at The Globe in Liverpool, England.

Cask @ Bedford Arms, Bedford. Light gold, little head. Aroma is raw honey and vinegar. Nicer than it sounds. Taste: balance off, too sweet to be a proper bitter, too sour to appreciate the honey. Nice full palette some may find cloying but I enjoyed it.

Cask at the Rose and Crown, Sandhurst. Pale amber with a loose white head; slightly sour, fruity aroma; soft texture in the mouth, with a cidery, apple taste; and a crisp appley finish. Rather strange.
