Leighton Profile

Very basic lager but drinkable enough. Low bitterness, some white bread, pale biscuits, nips of hay. Not a lot of salt. Drinks fine, even better when quite cold.

Has aged very well. Nice semi-dark malt character, a little ash and smoke, dried berries, fudge, cocoa, earth, only very faint oxidation. Mellow warmth. Nice to have a big impy without the childish adjuncts.

Outstanding. So soft and juicy, notes of tangerine, white grape, melon, lemon rind, mild rindy bitterness, a little grass, lean pale bread. Ideal balance. Clean, lightly bitter finish.

Not bad overall. Some candied citrus peel, pale bread, pine needles. Moderate bitterness. It grew on me as I drank it.
