2.3 AROMA 4/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 4/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 9/20
330ml bottle. Clear golden body with a thin white head. Aroma is malt, corn and hint of honey. Flavor is malt, corn and honey with a decent bitterness. Refreshing, a bit thin, missing some hop aroma, but still nice to be a lager.
2.3 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 2/5 TASTE 4/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 9/20
Bottle at Chris_0’s preGBBF Shindig. Aroma is malty and sweet, some grassy small cat pissy typical brewdog note. Taste is similar, far too malty and pritty boring.
2.4 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 4/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 9/20
A Mes rate: Bottle at Chris O’s Pre GBBF Tasting
Nice dark gold colour with a slim white head. Basic malty stuff with a big stinging hop punch. Rather scruffy and as with everyone else at the table I was hoping for more.
1.9 AROMA 4/10 APPEARANCE 2/5 TASTE 4/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 7/20
Bottled. Golden colour, small white head. Aroma is malts, hops, some grains. Flavour is quite much the same. I had actually waited for something more from a lager from Brewdog...
2.1 AROMA 4/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 4/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 8/20
Bottle at Chris_o Pre GBBF Shindig 08. Pours without much head. Lovely orange gold to look at. Some odd meaty aroma. Not much in mouth and then some dry stinging hop on finish put more pork terrrine as well. Not one of their better efforts I think.
2.4 AROMA 4/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 5/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 10/20
Clear golden with tiny white short lasting head. Sweet aroma with fruit and mild honey notes. Flavor has caramel and floral hops leading it to a bitter end.
3.1 AROMA 4/10 APPEARANCE 2/5 TASTE 8/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 13/20
330ml bottle from Tesco. Pours a pale straw/yellow with virtually no head, only a thin patchy layer of bubbles, and they’re disappearing fast. Not much to mention about the nose either, slightly malty if anything. However, the palate and flavour are another matter, good body and a well balanced malty feel, there’s a pleasant fruity/spicy tang which lingers well. Poor show initially, but a lovely flavoursome finish.
3.3 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 14/20
bottle at home ... very pale yellow ... light sweet hop nose ... nice floral hops with light fruit ... not bad esp given i accidentily froze this beer before drinking
3.3 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 12/20
Bottle. Pours a bright golden yellow with a thin white head that bubbles profusely. Nose is warm and malty with some healthy grassy hops, a touch of lemon and the slightest funk. Mouth is malty and quite sweet with some bitter hoppiness, drying and some fruity light kick. Leaves the mouth bitter and dry, but not offensively so. Refreshing.
