Soft malty beginning. Easy to drink, grainy with a soft mild grainy finish. A bit neutral with hints of citric hops.

Probably not what I would expect from Frome but very good nonetheless

Near black with a frothy tan head and a roasted malt aroma. Quite light bodied, coffee notes and fully roasted malt with some sweetish dark fruit pulling through

Monday 25th September 2023, Shrewsbury Gathering in Chez Sophie, 5 blokes and loads of beer. Cheers Mat for the 330ml can of this: BB 31st December 2024. Mark's wife supplied the Lemon Meringue Pie to go with this. The beer was a misty pale golden colour with a white head. It's a gentle beer with a citrusy flow from the Yuzu's, all a bit subtle compared to the Pie!
