White filmy layer over a golden body. Discreet floral aroma. Flavoured with fruity hops where especially distinctive notes of grapefruits come through. Smooth bitter endnotes. Easy drinking and fairly standard English bitter (third pint, hand-pulled at GBBF 08.08.2008).

Bottle. Golden colour, medium to small head. Grassy hop aroma. Good grassy bitterness together with toffee. Quite alright thirst-quencher.

Bottle, from Waitrose, Lincoln. Deep gold, good lasting white head and low condition. Gentle grassy hop nose with a faint hint of caramel, soft and hop bitter in the mouth with a background fruity sweetness, short finish with hints of flowery hop and some residual caramel sweetness.
