Cask at George, Sandbach. Pours a very pale straw with a minimal scummy almost white head and good lacing. Aroma is mainly floral hops. In the mouth it fluctuates between sweet and slightly sharp with flavours of citrus, lemon, kiwi and melon. Later on hints of nuts and spice as well. Finish is dry and slightly bitter. Not really my favourite sort of beer, but this is quite decent. Nice and refreshing but with a tang to it.

Clear light straw with a tight creamy white head and soft, light malt on the nose. Light bodied, slightly grainy, with biscuit malt up front, a twist of citrus coming through and a dry, slightly hoppy finish.
