Dan's Stag. Train rate. Thanks to Leighton for the can. Hazy gold beer, small pale cream colour head. Palate is airy and fairly dry, reasonable fine carbonation. Thin malts provide a modest sweetness. Grapefruit hops, mildly spicy with a touch of orange peel underneath. Quite pithy on the dry finish. Not bad, could be a lot juicier.
