Perhaps a little drier this year but again nicely integrated flavours - a little smoke, singed toffee, spiced bitterness. Shaded by last year but has become a seasonal worth getting a few of - it does seem to improve for 12-18 months.

From a 500ml can on 14/2/2021. Pours a clear light golden with a medium bright white head. The nose is very modest - a touch of grass and the barest hint of coconut. The modesty carries through to the taste - there's hints of honey, coconut and vanilla, but it's quite restrained. Much more prominent is the fairly sharp, lingering lemony bitterness which finishes things off. Medium bodied with moderate carbonation. Not very hazy like in look or character. Just okay.

Can at the Great British Beer Festival 2019 - London. Pours clear gold with a frothy, yellow-white head. Very good, with notes of semi-ripe citrus, mild citric tang, bready pale malts. Medium bodied with fine to average carbonation. Decent balance in the finish, restrained bitterness. Good beer.

Bottle at home from Beer52. A light hazed straw yellow coloured pour with a a fading white fizz. Aroma is pissy, earthy straw, nettle grassy veg, thin wheat and a little phenolic. Flavour is composed of crisp, light floury wheat, chalk, dry and flaked wheat, little midget gem and pissy citrus. Palate is dry and thin, spritzy carbonation and superdry finish. Pretty shit.
