An easy drinking straw coloured golden ale, with a thin white head and a light sparkling body. Notes of pine, citrus fruit and biscuit with a clean light bitterness. This extremely drinkable beer combines refreshing qualities of a pilsner with delicious fruitiness of a light ale.

330ml bottle. Initially barely clear, with later pourings cloudy, opaque, deep golden colour with average to huge, frothy, fluffy, fairly lasting, minimally lacing, white head. Hoppy aroma has a touch of grapefruit, herbs, and pine. Taste is moderately bitter hoppy, minimally fruity, mineral, and spicy, slightly grainy, malty background. Solid.

50cl bottle. A hazy amber colour with no head, despite a very careful pour; sweet citrus aroma; soft lemony taste with a chalky background; and then some sharp grapefruit leaving a dry finish. A rather average blond ale.

Bottle from Oddbins NHG, at home, 05/02/14. Lightly hazed pale golden blonde with a moderate white crown of bubbledom that stays for the show. Nose is green apples, straw, light citrus, toasty malt ring. Taste is a little thin, orchard fruit, straw, faint tangerine, light bread dough. Medium bodied but a little watery, fine carbonation, grassy close with very subtle bitterness. Not unpleasant just a little boring and lacking in flavour.
