33cl Bottle from Biolicious. Thanks Manon! Clear deep golden colour, white head. Aroma of grassy hops, later more mellow and light fruity, hint of citrus, malts. Flavour is soft, malty, crisp, grassy, light citrus, sweet fruits, light floral, firm bitter finish. Light bodied, refreshing. I was looking forward to a good lager, and this didn’t disappoint one bit. Nice.

Sampled @ GBBF day 2. Clear golden color, virtually no head. Smell and taste lightly malts, decent tropical fruits in there, slightly sweetish in the aroma, slightly bitter in the taste. A bit low bodied, average carbonation. Ok, but not quite it.
