330ml bottle from Oddbins, Queensferry street. Pours hazy pale yellow gold, enormous white head, very fizzy. Aromas of grains, dough, faint lemon, white pepper, something a bit harsh and cleaning-product-esque. Taste is similar. Prickly carbonation. Light spice linger.

Bottle at home picked up from Oddbins London Bridge. Clear bright yellow / straw coloured pour with a lasting white head. Aroma is nice rough grains, light straw,subtle saison yeast character, faint lemon zest. Delicate on the nose. Flavour is composed of light pils grains with a some rustic wheat and straw notes, tangy citrus, lemon rind, low saison yeast. Palate is light bodies, frothy, spritzy carbonation and a nice crisp drying finish. Lingering grain store and lemon. Good stuff.

Bottle at home in London - picked up at Oddbins London Bridge. Pours clear yellow, effervescent, with a frothy white head that quickly settles into a cream while leaving tasteful lacing. The aroma is super clean, with suggestions of lemon peel, crispy hay, perhaps some papaya. Lightly sweet with subtle dry, pale bread sugars, mellow bitter straw and grass, hints of grapefruit, lemon zest, a bit of pith, salt. Light bodied with average to lively carbonation and massaging texture. Finishes very cleanly, with nips of melon, light saison yeast, lemon pith, straw. Excellent beer overall. Supremely drinkable.

Bottle from Oddbins. Hazy golden body with a medium white head. Lively carbonation. Light lacing. Aroma of passionfruit, salted lemon and pale malt. Flavour of zesty lime, orange pith, sea salt and melon rind. Thin to medium body with a spritzy texture. Very fizzy. I really enjoyed this - it’s juicy and refreshing.
