Light grain aroma, with very little hops evident. Burnished gold with a creamy white head that left some lace before fading away. Very grainy flavour with a gentle bitterness and a smooth character. Body is lighter than I expected (I was looking for something smooth and creamy), but the restrained carbonation is in character.

This is a pretty good rendition of a style I don't particularly like, but I have to admire that its a very solid attempt. My one criticism would be that a creamier body would be preferred, but I'm sure this would be remedied on a nitro-tap.

Apricot-orange in colour, but utterly headles/laceless. Nose is gentle malts, interesting, but not much else. Slightly bitter, nicely fresh and grassy hops, mild malt. A touch spritzy on the palate.

Overall, slightly better than your average macro in character, but nothing to make it really stand out.

This is a medium dark golden colour with extremly limited head and minimum carbonation...not impressive looking at all.
The taste is intriguing as it starts malty sweet, goes bitter very quickly and then finishes sweet and lingers. Is of full body and a very light grainy aroma.
Drinkability would be higher with a lighter body.....
