Bottle at home picked up from Crumlin Tesco. A clear mid golden orange coloured pour with a scummy greyish head. Aroma is sweaty hop, dusty malts, faint citrus peel, earthy grains. Flavour is composed of thin grains, chalky, grassy hop, citrus peel, mineral. Wishy washy stuff. Meh.

Bottle at Gauchos, Chancery Lane, 27th November 19. Pours clear and lager like. Aroma is cardboard, straw. Taste is citrus, yeast, hay, light bitter, and some sweetness, which makes it less clean and crisp. OK.

Can on flight ✈️ EI159, 1200 LHR-DUB, 12/09/19. Sucker for a new take on a plane so had to scope this €5 low alcohol bier that puts me into the top 5 raters of Guinness. Clear golden with a decent lasting white cap of frothy bubbles. Nose is malt forward, that barley/malty air you get when you walk trough a town with a good sized brewery in it, toasted grains, paper, cereals. Taste comprises pale malts, light lemon peel, grass, toasted grains, cereals, faint dusty hops, light breads. Medium bodied, fine carbonation, semi drying close. Not bad for a 0.5% lager ... better than the vast majority of new country tick pale lagers !

The best beer on tap at the Sweet Afton in Belfast. Deep gold in color with brilliant clarity and a bubbly white head that persists. Light citrus and tropical fruits against a bready maltiness.
