On tap at Faction, pours a clear golden with a small white head. Nose brings out piney bitter hops and a touch of sweet caramel malt. Flavour is much the same, with bitter piney hops, crisp biscuity malt and just a touch of caramel. Balanced decently, but nothing special.

On tap at Faction, pours a cloudy blonde with a small white head. Aroma brings out light wheaty notes and a touch of coriander. Flavour is soft and wheaty, with soft coriander and a little citrus. Not much going on here, even for the style. Okay.

Appearance - 4 | Aroma - 4 | Flavor - 5 | Texture - 4 | Overall - 4.5
On tap at Faction, pours a clear blonde with a small white head. Aroma is rather mineraly, with a sort of stale bready malt character and deficient hops. Flavour isn't much better, with old bready malt and barely any hop character. A tired, lame pils. Poor.
