Pint at Paramo Lounge, Solihull. Clear gold with decent sized white head - certainly looks the part. Sadly it turned out to be quite mediocre. Very bread and sweet malt noted and very few notable hops even by Helles standards - maybe a slight dry grassiness in the finish. Decent smooth body though which goes down easily.

Keg @ Northern Crafthouse, Whitefield. Clear golden with a head. Lower-grade helles, with some bubble-gum aroma, dull taste. Pretty carbonated bubbles.

Keg at Arturo Lounge, Penrith. Pale yellowy gold, white head, rather fizzy. A touch of butter, a little lemon, a wisp of grass. It's poor, but it's still significantly better than the Cruzcampo I had just before.

330ml bottle [courtesy of Grumbo - cheers Graham!]. Cloudy, orange golden colour with average, thick, fluffy, moderately lasting, minimally lacing, white head. Wheaty malty and yeasty fruity, minimally yeasty spicy aroma, hints of banana, a touch of clove, whiffs of papaya. Taste is sweet-ish, wheaty malty, yeasty fruity and minimally doughy yeasty, minimally diluted hints of banana. Watery texture, minimally dry palate, medium, prickly carbonation. Simple, watery - not overly impressive.

330ml bottle [courtesy of Grumbo - cheers Graham!]. Crystal clear, yellow-ish, golden colour with small to average, frothy, half-way lasting, minimally lacing, white head. Grainy, strawy and minimally bready, pale malty aroma, a touch of corn. Taste is slightly grainy, minimally strawy, pale malty with some residual sweetness, mildly bitter, hoppy counterpart with weak soapy overtones. Watery texture with an oily strand, smooth and soft palate, medium to fine, dense, mildly prickly carbonation. Very clean, simeple and monotonous - so-so.
