Pours a mostly clear (bit of chill haze) yellow straw colour with 3 fingers puffy head. Aroma is muted (or is that my cold) - slightly fruity, cracker. Taste is crisp malt, again a slight cider like fruitiness, and a herbal hoppy bitterness at the finish. Mouthfeel is light with nice carbonation and again leaving with a lingering bitter effect. Decent.

473ml can - I don't know if I should be calling this 'He-ll-es', based on the label, but here we are.
This beer pours a clear, bright pale golden yellow colour, with a teeming tower of puffy, finely foamy, and somewhat fizzy white head, which leaves a few instances of broadly streaky lace around the glass as it quickly sinks out of sight.
It smells of grainy and crackery cereal malt, dried apple peel, petrol fumes, and some leafy, herbal, and grassy green hop bitters. The taste is gritty and grainy pale malt, some muddled pome fruitiness, a hint of gasohol, some damp minerality, and more earthy, hay-like, and dead grassy hoppiness.
The carbonation is adequate in its palate-coating frothiness, the body a decent medium weight, and generally smooth, with nothing really out to play the proverbial Grinch as this point in the season. It finishes trending dry, the sassy noble hops working extra time to make ends meet.
Overall - this comes across as a rather well-rendered version of the old-school style, nice and crisp and assertive in its bearing. A pleasant quaff before the heavy stuff (food and drink) that will be starting shortly on this annual day of indulgence - for me, though, it will be more about watching the little guy go nuts (and aiding and abetting, of course).
