500 ml bottle, from Gulating Ølutsalg, Stavanger. ABV is 4.2%. Clear golden colour, large white head. Moderately malty aroma with hints of toffee, orange peel and coriander. Refreshing and pleasant flavour, medium dry, with notes of citric hops and orange peel, hints of coriander seeds, decent bittering hops. Well balanced and enjoyable.

Bottle. Clear golden amber. Large bubbles.
Citrusy and grain aroma. A bit of caramel and leaf.
Weak lime and tangerine flavour. A note of spice. Bitter hit.
Well carbonated. Light to medium body.
Different but still only OK.

A 500ml bottle with a BB of Sept 2017. Purchased recently from Morrisons. Originally brewed to celebrate the start of the 2014 Tour de France in Yorkshire; contains orange peel and coriander in addition to Cascade hops.
A: Poured into a pint mug. A bright golden colour with good clarity and plentiful carbonation. Forms a decent head of creamy white foam that lasts for a minute or so before collapsing to a patchy surface layer.
S: Aroma of grassy, floral hops with hints of mild leafiness, pale malt, ale yeast, subtle orange peel and faint spice. Understated and rather pleasant.
T: Tastes of crisp, grassy hops and light malt, with notes of mild citrus, floral hints, ale yeast, a touch of spice and faint orange peel. Dry, followed by a clean, leafy bitterness upon swallowing.
M: Mouthfeel is smooth and tingly, with spritzy carbonation and light body. Aftertaste of bitter grassy hops, yeast and faint malt.
O: Pretty good - a light ale that goes down nicely. Looks alright, while the aroma and flavour are a balanced blend of grassy hops and pale malt with a whisper of spice in the background. Body is OK; perhaps a tad watery. While the orange and coriander are very subdued, the hop character is satisfyingly crisp. Would go down a treat on a sunny day - worth sampling.
