GBBF Day 2. Cask. Hazy apricot colour beer, a few short lived pale cream colour bubbles. Light dry palate, very modest fine carbonation. Okay berry fruits, a little blueberry comes through clearly. Mild floral berries. Light dry finish. A bit thin and dry, would probably work better on Key Keg.

Bottle from 3at3, Ely. Pours hazy amber with a short-lasting bubbly off-white head. Aroma of light hops, syrup, malt, sherbet, grass and straw. Moderate sweetness, light bitterness, metallic edge. Light body, watery texture, soft to flat carbonation. Even as low-abv beers go, this one wasn't amongst the best.
