Bottle from shop in eastbourne. Well to bse honest i really like this. It is smooth and very light but does the 3.8% proud. The smell is a little lagery and the taste is a mix of hay, cardboard, some metal. Better felt than rated.

On tap at The George Tunbridge Wells. Clear gold colour lasting white head. Smells and tastes like a golden ale but on keg instead. Good leafy hop aroma like a lager. OK in mouth I mean it does tastes like a lager ale crossover. I've had unfiltered Franken beers like this. Solid lemon leafy hop. Drinks like a good lager. Liked it a lot.
