Presented in a 500 mL brown bottle (that will please some, but matters little to me) with a slightly updated label compared to the BA database picture. Lots of information on the label too.
Lovely clear mid-amber pour with a nice head and some lovely lacing. This is a mild beer in all respects, and will probably be horribly under appreciated in the US.
Well, this is a typical English Pale Ale with plenty of lovely soft biscuit malts, delicate mouthfeel and excellent drinkability. With an ABV of 4.1% ABV, this is about as low as you can go and still have the complete, full-on hop package. As well as the ABV being delicate, the hop profile is also minimal at best. Having said that it all comes together very nicely.
Lovely sweet aftertaste and it’s gone before I know it.
