Rather dull blond ale. Hoppy, but thin, even unbalanced.
cgarvieuk (2160), Edinburgh, Scotland Mar 3, 2007 an amber coloured ale, with a sweet fruit maly nose, and a bitter fruity malt flavour. DJMonarch (4091), Northwich, Cheshire, England Jan 1, 2006 Cask Handpump at the Mill Hotel, Chester 28/06/2001
Mid brown coloured with some bitterness and pale malt. Dry hoppy finish. harrisoni (4915), Ashford, Kent, England Jul 6, 2005 Cask at Head of Steam, Euston
Light brown colour, good mix of hops and malt, I normally like everything from this brewery and this was no exception. Definitely a brewer to look out for. chris_o (4393), London, Greater London, England Jun 23, 2004 Cute wooden pump clip. Copper colour. Sweet, bready, undeveloped malt nose. The palate is also malty, but dryer with a touch of bitterness developing later on. However, the sweetness returns and lingers on the finish. All seems a bit unbalanced. Not bad, but not really my favoured style of bitter - I prefer something crisper with more bitter grip. I wouldn’t have recognised this beer from the brewer’s description. Cask (handpump), Head of Steam, Euston, London NW1 (with Spiesy).
