highlandlad (1203), Sydney, Australia Jan 14, 2005 Marginal improvement on the same brewer’s Especial but a pale imitation of a pale ale. Some citrus and spice in the aroma. No real body and a finish that is as abrupt as it is unremarkable. Dull.
Pinball (736), Allerød, Denmark Oct 17, 2008 slightly sour, sunburned beer, sweet, floral notes.
dark yellow, small offwhite head.
flavor is floral notes, honey, hops.
considering it being a spanish beer, its okay. but not really a good pale ale. D (502), Kraków, Poland Oct 6, 2008 Slightly disappinting as a pale ale. Golden colour, nice herbal aroma but not much complex taste with only slight fruity notes and not much bitterness. A bit Kolsch-like, but less characteristic notes. Good, but not class. Muggus69 (267), Sydney, Australia Aug 17, 2008 330ml bottle, 04-11-06? Hmmm. Hazy looking straw body with meager white foam. Faint skunky aroma, honey, rust, celery, corn, faint floral note. Dirty thin body, really chalky and dry, quite nasty actually. Rice and corn grain on the body, oxidised metallic notes of honey and dirt, salty, mouldy, dry chalky finish. Guess 2 years out of date can’t help, but still, this isn’t good at all! Adenila (699), Denmark Aug 3, 2008 Pale golden with bubling white head. Faint aroma of dust and flowers. Medium bitter flavors and very uninteresting. Miksu (1340), Jyväskylä, Finland Jul 17, 2008 0.33 l bottle. Pale golden color with small head. Malty, honeyish, perfumed, metallic and somewhat dull aroma. Dull malty, honeyish and tart-fruity flavor. Pale ale?? This more like a crap lager.
