Bottle shared in London - many thanks to Dan boy. Pours totally clear gold with a creamy, off-white head. Muted aroma, some pale bread, maybe a little white grape and citrus. Light sweet flavour with restrained dry garlic, crusty pale bread, light plastic. Light bodied with fine to average carbonation. Drying finish, a little woody, with some citrus rind, more bread crust. Neither here nor there, really. So so.

Dark amber color, tiny off-white head. malty aroma with light fruity notes. Light-bodied. Flavor has earthy notes, some citrus and then odd yeastyness which seemed to be like Yates house flavor. Without that ok but uninteresting.
