Bottle. Yellow with a small head. Citrus and hops blend together with a bitter finish. Pleasant and easy to drink. Another winner from this brewery

Bottle from Cotteridge Wines; hazy yellow pour with foam white head, slight hop aroma & washing up liquid the citrus kind, not much hop in the taste maybe past it’s best, quite refreshing with heavy carbonation.

500ml bottle Cotteridge Wines B30. A disappointment. Little flavour. The only sensation was of the sensation in the mouth of CO2.

Shared from a bottle on the train back from the Borefts Bier Festival 2012,  Brouwerij de Molen, day one.  Thanks jmgreenuk! Pours a hazy yellow. Flavors of citrus and fresh cut grass.

Bottle from Stirchley Wines and Spirits, Birmingham. This beer was a real surprise. It had a rustic, earthy, yeasty aroma with a smooth but satisfying and refreshing bitterness with a lingering bitter, but ever so slightly sour aftertaste. I only bought the one bottle, but I will be returning for more. It was truly excellent and a real steal for the price. I now wonder how good their other single hop series beers are?

50cl bottle courtesy of jmgreenuk. Shared Decent white head. Hazy blond pour. Nice hoppy beer.

500ml bottle. Pours a slightly hazy light gold with a medium head. Aroma is light lemon and straw. Taste has lemon to start with a sharp straw finish. Slightly astringent.

Cask-conditioned at the Three Tuns, Bristol 4/07/2012. Deep gold with a slight whit head. Slight aroma of lemon fruit with some biscuity malts. Flavour had some more citrus, with a solid malt base and decent, bitter finish. Fine.
