Bottle. Pours golden with no head. Over carbonated, sweet then grass. Not for me. Like to try on cask.

3 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 4/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 13/20
Fair enough to have a soft spot for a beer which makes rating it suck. Goes from being a beer you down in gallons to a beer you just look at and go ’Meh!’ This is one of those.
Bright yellow gold with rapidly rising fine streams of carbonation. Soapy, sudsy and satiny white hat manages to last the length and leaves a fine lace. There is a blend of perfumy musk, flower petals, straw, hay bales and trodden earth on the nose with hints of tangy tangerines, mandarin’s and lemon zest - good start. Soapy, foamy mouthfeel with soft, lightly prickly carbonation up front. Citrussy sweet tang along the side with a nice floral length, subdued bitterness, a little earth. A strange artificial lime cordial note builds as it empties, the bready malt base no help at all. It is easy drinking, but annoyingly monotone. I’ll just go back to drinking it with my brain on stand-by! (50cL, BBE 04/12, Cellarbrations Kinross)

Ugly yellow and fizzy with no head. Apple, metal, white grapes. Watery body. Not great. Easy to drink though.
4.1 AROMA 8/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 9/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 16/20
Pours a fizzy golden colour and has a grape and elder-flower aroma and the taste has elder-flower grape and peach nice beer.
2.8 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 5/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 11/20
(bottle) Clear pale god with decent head. Nice aroma of citrus and grassy hops. Light body and fizzy. Flavor has a sweet candy and pineapple start with a disappointing thin metallic finish. Overall, a nice start but a dsappointing finish
3.3 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 13/20
Pale gold with orange notes, a white head that subsides in short order. Scents of orange blossom, elderflower and citrus peel. Smells zesty and fresh. It has a lovely tangy bitterness that fills the mouth and gives a tingly mouthfeel. Those same aromas represent themselves in the flavour and lingers. I see where they get the white grapiness from too. Lovely.
3.5 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 14/20
Bottle at Grove Arms. Pale golden pour with a tight white head. The aroma is softly hoppy with a bit of earthy spiciness. There is a little bit of light fruity character. Simple sort of bitter but decent enough. Moderate fruit with a little bit of soft white grape sweetness.
