Cloudy golden ale with a very thin head. Has a large pale aroma, but is less so in taste which has a malty base to it, and a pleasant one.

My 8700th Rating. Bottle @ Ulfborg, Early Winter Tasting, 2011. Pours clear golden with a creamy head and lacings. Lots of citrus and bread. Medium bodied. Plain and simple. OK.

Bottle. It’s a clear, golden beer topped by a small, dense, off-white head. It’s lightly spiced on the nose, with a good dash of dried orange peel. Not much maltyness. The flavor too is rather orangey, with a little maltyness in the back. Lacking on bitterness I think. Medium body, with a nice level of carbonation, although not a very British level. Orangey and lighlty bitter finish. A beer I like, but it’s a bit boring. Drinks easily though. 111105
