440ml can delivered from the Blue Boar, Leicester, and drunk at home. Light gold, a little bit hazy with a small ring of white head and minimal lacing. Citrus peel, some hay and dried grass in the aroma, a little bit skunky. There is a sweetness to the taste that come through just after the initial astringent hit. Intense bitter hop in the finish, with more citrus zest in the aftertaste. Medium to heavy carbonation. Didn't care all that much for this although it grew on me a bit.

Can at home in Hackney - sourced from Clapton Craft online. Pours totally clear yellow with a frothy white head. A very pleasant lager, nice biscuity malts, some grassy bitterness, straw, not really much zest, maybe a little bitter citrus peel. Light bodied with average carbonation. Balanced finish, more dry and crispy biscuits, bitter grass, grain husk. Sound.
