Low carbonation and light bodied.Slight citrus and hop character but could have done with a lot more in the way of hops.Not a bad beer, but overall nothing special. Maybe a little harsh giving it a 10, bump it up to 12 on 2nd tasting.

Bottle. Just hazy pale amber with a white head. Aroma of honey, pine, herbs, vague citrus. A bit of Butter Menthol about the taste, quite dry at the end with moderate bitterness and some grapefruit. Pleasant enough.

Bottle. Barely hazy gold with a white head that fades fairly quickly. Grainy aroma with sour oranges, lots of coriander. More convincing taste is a nice balance of sweet grains and oranges, tartness and spicy bitterness. Too much coriander in the aroma for me, but everything works very well together on the palate. Refreshing. No elaborate things going on here: simple ingredients, yeast character.

Bottle, 11C. Dark brown with a loosish inch of beige head. Aroma is earthy with light roast, chocolate, some nuts. Light bodied. Malty but not all that sweet with an engaging earthy character, some chocolate and nuts. Moderate bitterness as it dries out a little at the end. Nice beer.
