500ml bottle, best before Dec 2012: poured into a UK pint sleeve on 16 July 2012.
Mid-golden body, clear and clean: good white blanket of foaming bubbles on top.
More hops than malts: the nose and taste majoring on semi-citrus hop flavours.
Bitter-sweet really in the mouth with the bitterness winning in every sip especially towards the end as the mouth dries.
Did it ring my bell? Yes, one of the better hoppy brews out there (IMHO).

Very pale golden pour. The aroma is a little bit sulphury. Soft fruity hops and a touch of spice as well. Goldings hop spice and a nice minerally character. As it warns up the spice really comes out. There is a touch of soft peppery character and some light lingering almost minty character as well. Soft and spicy and quite lovely. A pretty solid pint really.
