Tasted by half-pint at the Pembury Tavern, Hackney, N London.

A: bright copperish hue, coming with little beer head but with great clarity.
S: a sweet start of caramel malts is followed by exotic fruity notes of green-bananas (on skins) and ripe apples. Fruity and light.
T: sour-sweet fruits upfront, followed by a very faint input of maliness. Very little aftertaste, even when its low abv. is taken into account.
M&D: the body is extremely light, on the verge of being watery on the overall mouthfeel... besides, the balance doesn't hold very well. Overall, an o.k. beer, maybe better when served absolutely fresh (apparently, I wasn't so lucky).
