A golden ale with a thin resilient white head. Aroma of sweet caramel, vanilla, moka, with light hopping. In mouth, a biscuitty malt with light nutty bitterness, sustained, a bit of buttery notes. Rich for the low alcohol content. Bottle from LCBO.

Bottle, 4.6%. Weak citrus aroma. Almost clear light amber colour. Small white head. The flavour has some citrus to start with, then turns fruity in a maltier way with a little teaish hops. Medium bitterness.

Cask at the Crooked Billet, Wokingham. Straw with a white head; an appealing citrus aroma; citrus and malt flavours and some dry hops to finish. Very pleasant on a warm day, but not much to it.

Bottle @ home. Looks orange/amber, white head. Smells a bit skunky. Taste is good though, some caramel, malts, a bit watery, and a bit of cardboard. Watery bitter finish. Nice.
