Some haze, pale. Thin head. Clean and bready pale malt. A touch warm. Decent. Good balance, moderate bitterness. Again, though, it is the well-extracted malts.

Cloudy, not much head, pale. Grapey, stone fruit and a hit of brett on the nose. Tart, bretty, and with a touch of malt. Fresh bug notes. Slight woody note in the finish. Nice blend.

Dullish pale amber, with slight haze. Fruity hop aroma, but on the palate it's more bitter and with that sort of vague malt you get in a non-alc. So there's some promise but it's still a non-alc and that feels limiting.

Bright, deep amber colour. Thin head. Rich amber malts, giving me caramel, light sugars, rich bread crust sort of malt. Medium bitterness and medium body. Nice lager.

Half-pint on tap at the Boot on 6th September 2024. Hazed pale golden body, white crown. Citrussy and floral aroma, taste also leaning towards citrus flavours. More hops than malts in this brew.
