Bottle courtesy of Bill and Julia, many thanks guys. Had this at home Sunday 23rd February 2025, after a short walk to Gasthof zum Sonnewald Schöfweg (our local) pours light amber, decent clarity and a mid sized white head. Middling bitterness, a little citrus, it's a touch thin as only 3.4% abv, but pleasant.

Bottle from Home Bargains. Clear amber with small white head, good retention. A bready, toffee and leaf and floral hop noted ale. Drying, light bodied. Ok.

Cask. Cavendish, Cartmel. Clear gold. Decent head of white suds. Nose has bready, sourdough like grain. Bit of a nettle leaf hop thing. Taste is dry and a little astringent. Some honey sweetness. Light body. Crisp carbonation. Light bitter finish. Ok. Not sure this is in the best nick.
