Tap at St Albans beer festival 2025. A mostly clear orange gold coloured pour with a lasting fine white head. Aroma is earthy grains, grass, nutty pils, burnt grass. Flavour is composed of dry mineral, chalk, nutty, earthy grains. Burnt grass, hint of Lychee, white grape. Palate is uber crisp, highish spritzy carbonation. Quite interesting.. Not bad. Decent enough.

Can. A mild to medium haze on this yellowish gold beer, small bubbly pale cream colour head. Light palate, mildly dry, good fine minerally carbonation. Light bodied pale malts, smooth and imparting the right amount of sweetness for this brew. Hops bring a delightful array of crisp cooling pine, light bright yellow grapefruit, stone fruits, bright orange and mandarin. A hop spice nip for good measure. Juicy fruity crisp finish. A bright and breezy affair and absolutely crushable.
