Bottle at home (gift from brother) Nose has fresh earthy hops. Pours a very pale, slightly brownish, yellow with a frothy generous white head. In the mouth, there is an initial flavour of lime and cola, before bitterish lemon comes powering through. There is more lemon here than in my lemonade ! Lemon and apples in the finish. Verdict is out on this one.
