Can from Wine Reserve, Cobham. Herby - what I am guessing is lemongrass - aroma over a typically spicy and citrus base. Opaque light gold. Creamy translucent white head. Light bitter with a sour edge. Herby citrus with a spicy bite. Thin. Light bodied but slick. Low key fizzy carbonation. Relatively abrupt dry finish. Refreshing. Enjoyable.

Can from Wine Reserve, Cobham. Now 4.5% ABV. Sweet malty aroma with a grassy edge. Opaque dull gold. Thick foamy white head. Some initial yeasty sweetness before grassy medium bitterness appears. Stone fruit too. Medium bodied. Slick, almost creamy. Soft-fizzy carbonation. Long dry astringent. Decent stuff. Almost a India Style Lager as opposed to trad Pils.

Can at the 2nd Lockdown Tasting, picked up online, Watford Tahn 14/08/20. Light hazed on a pale golden yellow pour with a decent white cap. Nose is grass, light citric zest, pale malts. Taste comprises pale malts, hint of lemonade, grass, mellow hop presence. Medium bodied, fine carbonation, semi drying close. Not bad ... a clean and easy drinking pils.
