Bottle, Carringtons, Chorlton. Pallid straw gold pour with minimal head. Pretty muted hop character. Biscuity malts and some fruit, but all a bit restrained and ho hum. Reasonable enough guzzler but nothing special.

500ml Brown bottle conditioned UK brewed wheat beer poured into a Franziskaner Weissbier glass on 13 Apr 2012. The beer has a slight haze to its otherwise pale golden body. The head was thin and white in colour, getting thinner with every sip. Citrus hop aroma and taste: not a lot else really. Refreshing but somewhat lacking in depth and deep flavours.

bottle at home ... golden amber .. thin white head ... soft sweet lemon fruit nose ... light banana lemon ... quite heavily oily body ... quite a bitter duration ... some lemon peel ... little heavy ... quite syrupy sweet

500ml bottle. Pours a slightly hazy light gold with a medium head. Aroma is lemon and lime hops. Taste starts with some lime. Wheaty finish. Citrus aftertaste. Full in the mouth with prickly carbonation.

Bottle 500ml.
Clear medium yellow color with a small, fizzy to none, virtually none lacing, fully diminishing, white head. Aroma is light moderate malty, toasted, fruity, light hoppy, citrus. Flavor is moderate sweet and light bitter with a average duration. Body is medium to light, texture is watery to oily, carbonation is soft. [20100119]

Bottled. A hazy golden beer with a thin off-white head. The aroma has notes of elderflower and hops. The flavor is sweet with notes of straw, elderflowers, and malt, leading to a dry finish.

Bottle 50 cl. Pours a slightly hazy golden with a white head. Lightly citrusy nose. Medium body, sweet fruits yet with an astringent grapefruitish touch. Dry finish. Fresh alright. 190110

Cask gravity, 2nd Hinckley Beer Festival. Full and vinous on top of the Noble; deep husky malts, punishing dryness, brighter headless gold, nibbles of compensating biscuit. Apple yeasty and heady orange fruit, smidgeon of oak, nil wheat (’clear wheat beer’?). Chewed dog toy, alcohol and nuts in the aroma. Astingent finish with little relief from the IBUs. Not a completely balanced experience, but some quality there, as always from Beowulf.

Cask@2nd Hinckley Beer Festival, 2009. Bronze beer with a light head. The aroma is lightly hopped, and the flavour is lightly vinous, mildly malty and bitter. Overall a nice lightly hopped and malty beer.

Bottle.Cloudy yellow.Fruity with some hops present. Fruity slightly bitter aftertaste. Reasonable but could have been better.
