Very pale ale with no head. Bit grainy nose, duck-weed, and impression of a slight sourishness. Bit peppery flavour, grainy and sweet notes, as from pale malts. Light body, bit watery, spritzy. Not really special.

2nd December 2008. Clear brown beer, small suddy head. Nice flavour. A lively acrid bitterness with a smooth malt that balances out quite well. A little sour fruit. Good beer but couldn’t drink loads!
