I cracked open a bottle of this honestly not knowing what to expect last night and I have to say I was pleasantly surprised. It wasn't overly carbonated, which I quite like and is probably down to bottling method (the real test of this beer will be when I tap the mini keg). The colour is a bit darker than Summer Lightning is, which I think is due to the boiling of the extract, I'm looking into ways of avoiding it next time. Taste wise, it is very light in the mouth and not overly bitter. It has a wonderfully pleasant hop aroma and taste that is nicely balanced (I'm starting to dislike overly hopped light ales because they are everywhere, so this is a good thing).
All in all, I'm very impressed and will now forge on ahead with extract brewing, knowing that I can produce genuinely good results.
