Pours a clear golden colour with a small bubbly white head that quickly settled. A light malt aroma with hints of citrus. A light sweet malt taste with light hop flavours. No depth of flavour and a bit thin, oily in the mouth.

Cask @ White Swan, Hebden Bridge. Golden with a creamy head. It's a steady hoppy ale with a nice smoothness.

Keg at the Three Compasses, Farringdon, London. Deep and slightly hazy gold with a thin white head. A lot of butter. Some sharp lemon. Far too buttery for a pale. Urk.
