Brewed with quality choice lager malts and Styrian Golding hops, this pale lager delivers floral notes and a mildly malty, crisp taste with a long clean finish. At 3.8% ABV, this is a true session lager any time of the day, any time of the year.

I had this beer on-tap in a pint glass at Bridgewater Exchange in the Manchester airport. The brewer calls this a pale lager, although it feels a lot more like a light lager to me.
Appearance: medium golden hue with a clear body, a strong effervescence, and a thick head of pillowy ivory foam that leaves a chunky lace on the glass. Quite good!
Smell: lightly grainy malt with a little bit of a metallic note. It's okay, if not totally clean.
Taste: very light with a clean, grainy malt flavor. Not a lot here, but for a 3.8% light lager, it's got a decent amount of flavor.
Mouthfeel: light body with a huge carbonation and a pretty decent creaminess considering how light it is.
Overall: the low ABV makes this pretty drinkable, though its flavor imperfections hamper it a bit.
