Very clear and very light colored: hence the name I guess. Head completely disappeared: looks more like a soft drink... Decent nose: floral, Turkish delight, honey. Good initial flavour but falls off precipitously. Honey, malty, floral. At the end watery. Strange dry at the end: almost an oaky taste. Thirst quenching but a bit disappointing.

Beer is pish. And this place is fucked these days. Lights like a nightclub, karaoke ON FUCKING REQUEST, at all times. Chancers who presumably are barred elsewhere in town. On the plus side, open till 1am, so let's go..
