Can. A Collab with Kirkstall is what I am quaffing. There might be some more info on the can but the typeset is the opposite of the motif of the elephant on the can, I mean it's fucken minute, probably would have been passable as a cold war microdot font! Christonabike! Near clear burnished gold beer, good pale cream colour head. Airy smooth palate, mildly dry, feels slightly thin overall. Good fine carbonation. Light smooth malts, a light sweetness, just about perfect for the English hops - which as far as I can see are not detailed, maybe buried in the microdot text! Certainly tastes like English hops, a little mellow ripe citrus, light touches of orchard fruits and berry fruits. Smooth pine runs throughout. Airy and mildly dry finish. I always appreciate good English hop beers and I appreciate this one. Next time I need new glasses, maybe I'll try and optician in the brewers hometown. Or just buy a microscope!

Draught Ultra dense & fine, bit cram-coloured head over clear amber beer, rings of lace. Sweetish, caramel, toasted malts (crystal?). Sweet, faintly toasted, but ending absolutely neutral, almost watery. Light body, mild carbonation. Slick; empty finish. Ends disappointing.
