Bottle thanks to allmyvinyl. Appearance - lightly cloudy golden amber. Attractive lacing. Nose - burnt bread plus a little lemon. Taste - burnt bread or biscuit again. Palate - close to medium bodied and crunchy. Dry but again crunchy. Overall - add 2% and you've got an ESB. That could be interesting. Not sure it's a hoppy session ale.
