330ml bottle @ Hopwater Cellar. Stocked in the polish section, only realised it wasn't Polish when I got home. Pours misty gold, white topping. Aroma has light semi-sweet malt, continuing to taste with some soft fruity citrus, light floral moments. A generally well-rounded straightforward golden ale.

Bottle from ASDA, Manchester. I lost the full review of this due to a low word count when Ratebeer was redesigned, although before it was I noticed I found this beer bland.

Many thanks for this beer to Grzesiek79. Pours a hazy orange color with a mild woody hop flavour, earthy notes and a fruity finish.
