440ml can courtesy of Grumbo, cheers Graham! Gluten Free. Pale golden colour, big foamy white head leaving some lacing and aroma of fruits, grains, banana note, grassy. Taste sweetish, grainy, pale malt, fruity, with banana, yeasty, and some grassy bitterness. Light bodied, medium to high carbonation, drying grassy bitter finish. Quite OK.
