Bottle from Best One, Brackley Road, Bedford. Straw, clear with a loose with head and lots of visible carbonation. Lemon, hay, baking spices and sugary yeast compete in the aroma. Bittersweet taste with astringent hop notes leading to a drier finish. More lemon and some coriander seed in the aftertaste. I haven't had the original for comparison, but I thought this was pretty good with the extra hops giving it an almost lagery character.
