Served on draft at the brewpub. Pours a crystal clear pale golden color with a large frothy white head. Decent head retention. Aroma of grainy malts, grassy hops and corn notes. The taste is sweet grain, corn and grassy hops. Tart and sweet, very crisp, low carbonation, medium bodied and I love that ABV.

GBBF. Cask. Hazy brown beer. Small off white head. Light semi crisp palate. Smooth malt, hardly dark at all. A little plummy fruit underneath. Fine carbonation in the finish with slightly stronger dark malt. Very mild coffee in the aftertaste. Dry finish. Nicely joined up and pretty drinkable.
