The liquid is clear and pale gold (7 EBC), the low white head sinks down to a thick rather quickly.

The sweet-tart malty smell is light. Earthy hints of english hops.

The taste is light and earthy with some minerals. Dark bread. Hints of sour candy and dried fruits. The aftertaste is rather light with biscuits and cookies. Almost no hoppy notes, and just hints of bitterness. Some wallpaper paste and wheat flour in the finish.

The carbonation is light; the small bubbles light too. The liquid is mid-smooth.

Skebo knows this style well, and this is just another good bitter by them. Some odd notes of wallpaper paste and a slight wheat-y flour-ness though.

The brew is pale straw colored has a white uneven head, rather good lacing. No curtains.

The smell is citric, lemon, grape-fruit and fresh grass.

The taste starts with white bread, lemon, grape-fruit juice and peel.

Medium low carbonation, refreshing, rather long dryness, almost coarse.

A very much latter days summer brew, rather simple and undemanding.
