355ml can. Clear, orangey golden colour with average to huge, frothy to creamy, moderately lasting, minimally lacing, white head. Grainy, strawy, minimally grassy hoppy aroma, a spicy touch of silage. Taste is slightly bready and minimally strawy, pale malty, mildly bitter and minimally grassy hoppy overtones. Quite earthy, lacks some fruitiness or any other refreshing quality. Meh.

(Bottle, 0.5 l, at pre HBF2017 Saturday tasting, thanks VastActiv) The beer poured golden and hazy. Its head was medium sized and white. Aroma had fruitiness and sweetness. Palate was medium bodied with medium carbonation. Flavours were sweetness, grass, malts and bitterness. Aftertaste was hoppy and bitter. A quite bitter pale ale. Decent.
