Very light haze on this gold beer, tidy pale cream coloured head. Palate is airy and dry. Modest fine carbonation. Dry floralness, light bitterness. Touch of lactose. Slightly dusty feel. Mild grapefruit citrus. Airy dry finish. Okay.

Very light haze on this amber beer, small pale cream coloured head. Palate is smooth and softish. Fine carbonation. Smooth malt, touch of light cream. Mild and unsweet caramel. Orangey dried fruits before a smooth finish. Mellow and drinkable. Mellow bitters seems to be an 8 Sail thing.
