Grisette

Brewery: Cloudwater Brew Co
Supplier: Beer52

Another discounted box from Beer52. This is from a manchester based brewery that was founded last year (with their first blog post exactly a year ago). They specialise in doing seasonal brews, this is a saison seasonal brew. I served this chilled.
Appearance: A pale straw colour with a slight haze. The pure white head is thin and fades quickly.
Aroma: Not much head at all, there is a small amount of funk right in the background. 
Flavour: Slightly tart with some cereal notes right at the back. 
Body: Thin, but refreshing. Too much fizz though. 
Aftertaste: Slightly fruity and tart, there is also a slight smoky note. 

Overall: Therefore this gets a rating of 5, nice but weak in flavour, good for if you need to drive though because of the low alcohol.

Price Range: The box had 8 beers for £14 - so £1.75 for a 330ml bottle; not a bad price, I would get it if I had to drive.

Food Pairings: a vegetarian medley, preferably something with asparagus.
