330ml bottle [courtesy of Grumbo - thanks a lot, Graham!]. Minimally cloudy, orangey golden to copper colour with average to huge, frothy, slowly osteoporosing, settling, minimally lacing, light off-white head. Sweet-ish malty and citrusy hoppy aroma, notes of tangerine, orange, a touch of red berries, marmalade. Taste is sweet-ish, pale and caramel malty, slightly biscuity, citrusy and fruity hoppy, notes of tangerine, orange, some apricot; dry, minimally mineral and bitter finish. Creamy-watery texture, smooth and soft palate, medium to fine, slightly prickly carbonation. Pretty flavourful for its low abv, nice creamy ground layer - very nice!
