Bottled and part of a big beer push in the cooperative
Pours a champagne gold coloured with decent enough white head
Wheat crackers aroma
Wheaten malty flavour that's not quite right

500ml bottle from Warners at the Bay, poured into a Shepheard Neame pint glass.

Light golden colour with a slightly cloudy appearance. A real white coloured foam on top that pours to the perfect height as most British ales seem to.

Aromas of british hops, noticable, but not overly assertive.

The taste is slightly hoppy, with a hint of honey sweetness with a little maltiness.

Mouthfeel is pleasant, relatively light bodied, as you would expect from a 3.7% ABV golden ale.

Overall, an average summery drop. If you dislike sweetness or british hops, steer clear of this.

On cask in a pub in the Yorkshire Dales National Park. Enjoyed this one post-Yorkshire 3 Peaks Challenge.

A: semi-cloudy blondish ale with 1-finger head that dissipates leaving very little (if any) lacing.

S: sweet and malty with a hint of grains.

T: this has that characteristic blonde ale flavour that's somewhere between an English pale or bitter ale but light enough to appeal to a lager drinker. A touch of sweetness and very little bitterness.

M: smooth and creamy with low to moderate carbonation and a slight sticky/tackiness on the tongue.

D: very good!
