Hazed golden color with a fine white top. Ok lacing down the sides of the glass. Looks ok. Mild hoppy aroma with a good intensity. Medium body and an average carbonation level. Pleasant and easy to drink. Malty, herbal and mild citric hoppy flavor. Ok thirst quencher.

Keg @ Kings Head, Huddersfield. Blonde with a heavy carbonation and a thick creamy-frothy head. Crisp, it’s a little understated with its dry hoppiness, but light and easy-drinking all the same.

Pours a clear coppery amber colour with almost no head. Orange peel and biscuit malt aroma. A dry bitter flavour; some biscuit malt but not a lot to it.
