Just a very light haze on this amber beer, small bubbly pale cream colour head. Something unpleasant on the nose, whiff of varnish or something like it but it is not strong enough to be completely off-putting, just an unwelcome distraction. Palate is quite light and semi dry, moderate fine carbonation, enough for this brew. Smooth light malts, a touch of caramel and a whisper of dry cream. Some ripe orange and mellow orange peel into a light but curiously spicy finish. Not alcohol spice but like someone laced some chilli in there. Don't hate this but it is lacking depth and complexity and is a little odd.
