Nothing outstanding. A good aroma of British hops, slightly malty flavor but the finish is wattery.

Smells a little malty but not too potent. Some caramel, sweetness. Has a big oaky bitterness at the end with some decent staying power. A good ten seconds of aftertaste here. On tap at volos.

Originally rated August 2006. Beautiful creamy off-white yellowish head that has great retention. The brew is clear copper in colour and has a good amount of active carbonation. Lacing is thick and patchy. The aromas are light with grainy malt and bittern hops hidden in the back. Smooth and creamy mouthfeel. The taste is also light, with some refreshing malt, apples in the middle and mild corn in the finish. Hop is also present as a flavour, but not in bitterness. I enjoyed this one as an easy-drinking cream ale... and like the description says, so did my girlfriend.
