Golden color with a small white head. Fruity and some citrus in the aroma. Mild malty and herbal flavor with some notes of citrus. An ok mild english blond ale, especially at 3,8%. Easy drinkable with a soft co2 level.

Cask. A hazy light golden beer with a thin beige head. The aroma has notes of lemon and hops. The flavor is sweet with notes of lemon and hops on a lightly malty background, leading to a bitter finish.
