1.6 AROMA 3/10 APPEARANCE 2/5 TASTE 3/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 6/20
Hazy yellow colour good head tho. Has a harsh sharp lemony edge to the palate...unpleasant! Overall a poor effort.
2.2 AROMA 3/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 4/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 9/20
Slightly hazy pale gold. Gush of fizz when opened. Sourness in the aroma: not very promising. Sour citric taste. Low bitterness. Not enough here to get excited.
3.3 AROMA 8/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 13/20
Bottle (purchased at the brewery): Golden , big fluffy lasting head, strong lemony hoppy aromas with a touch of lemon peel and a tinge of vanilla; moderate to solid bitter-sweet flavour, very light bodied; moderate aromatic bitter finish. A light, but a very aromatic brew...........
2.4 AROMA 4/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 5/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 9/20
Autumn 2004, a hazy lager with a minimal head, flat mouthfeel, the flavour has notes of citrus and apple and a light bitterness. August 2005, this one is crystal clear and lightly golden and the carbonation is OK. The aroma is like brewers mash and a bit of fruit. The flavour has notes of apple and citrus and a nice bitterness. Not one I’ll remember, but far better that the first bottle.
