A lager from Caledonian - what were we thinking?
Made with pale malt and traditional lager hops to produce a light flavoured beer with a satisfying balance of mellow hop, toasted malt and wheat.

Cask at GBBF 2008. A light straw colour with a medium white head. the aroma is sweet fruit with hops. The flavour is very dry with a hint of citrus, and a dry finish.

A Mes rate: Cask at Baker Street ’Sporks.
A cloudy light golden brown with a thin white film but lots of sparkler induced lacing. Better than I expected in all honesty. Lots of berry notes, delicate malt and hops with a faint mineral hint. Bready malt finish with a slight bitterness eventually leaving an aftertaste that finally lives up to the lager moniker. Decent clean mouthfeel. Not bad.

Cask-conditioned at the Robert Fitzharding (JDW), Bristol 26/7/08. Golden coloured with a slight white head. Sweet, diacetyl aroma offset by the earthy hops and a slight hint of roastiness. Sweetish flavour with a decent, dry hop finish. Ok.

Cask in the New Crown. Aroma is buttery dycetl malts, soft earthy, grassy hop. Taste is similar, on the sweet side but still very drinkable.

Handpulled cask at JDW Watford. Gold with a creamy white head in very good condition. Gentle malt with a crisp saaz hop finish. Refreshing but pretty ordinary as a lager or cask ale.
