Golden and very clear. Medium body and left no lacing. Slightly flowery and a but too much on the sweet side for my taste. Still quite pleasant.

Sweet grain and honey nose, gold color, big fluffy head. Thin, smooth malt with a light hop bitter that build on itself through the glass. Pure and classy.

Medium, white creamy, long lasting head on the deep golden brew. Light herb and perfume nose. Nice light hops taste - crisp and refreshing. Actually makes more a Springbeer and it is suprisingly not heavy at all.

Bottle. Brick-dusty aroma. Golden colour, small white head. Nice flavour, slightly sweet and a little alcoholic. Turning malty. Good mouthfeel.
