Golden honey color, with a frothy white head, the nose is one of a sweet pale malt, candied citrus fruits, sweet lemony hop aroma follows through on a medium-bodied palate with a sweet bready dough and pale malt character, candied lemon fruitiness, leading towards a malty and faint hop bittering finish.

On tap. Purty golden yellow. A tasty drop with a fruity aroma bold enough to overcome my fish n chips accompaniment.

Lovely golden colour with a frothy white head. Yeasty aroma with plenty of sweet fruits. Very bland taste: a little sweetness but not much of a finish. Easy drinking beer.

Bottled. Dark yellow in colour. Vanishing head. The aroma is sour and fruity. The flavour is yeasty and fruity, sweet and you can taste the alcohol.
