A refreshing light golden brew, whose flavour is complex and mellow with a finely balanced floral aroma and smooth bitterness.

Bottle from the brewery. Pours clear dark gold with an off-white cap. Aroma: sweet-ish malts, some caramel, floral hints. Taste: light sweet & light to moderate bitter, dry, pale malts, grassy. Light to medium body with moderate carbonation. Inoffensive but not a lot going for it.

Bottle ordered from the brewery. Aroma is malty with a citrus streak Light gold. Thin foamy white head. Light-medium bitter. Bite from a sour citrus edge. Underlying sugary boiled veg then appears. Light bodied. Thin if slick. Soft-fizzy carbonation. Flavoursome enough so not a complete bore.
