The nose is hoppy. The color is golden and it has a small head. The flavor has a thin start, but then turning nicely hoppy. The only thing bearing this bear thru is the nice hopping - otherwise it is boring.

Clear golden color. Mild hop aroma. Begins with the taste of a standard German wheat, but then a sour chemical taste. Very little wheat taste at all. Not very good.

Bright amber; wheaty, slightly lemony; malty finish. A pretty simple beer that does nothing to change my opinion that this brewery is overrated.

Sampled cask-conditioned at the Cayo Arms, Cardiff...Light amber; earthy, minerally aroma, light caramel, some tin character. Moves into chalkiness on the palate, and a slightly earthy hop finish.
