RBESG August 2011, King William IV. Cloudy orange with a small off-white head. Fruity hop aroma with a bit of citrus. Dry and fruity flavour with a bit of a yeasty homebrew feel.

William IV: Brodies Birthday Bash Sept 2011. Sweet biscuit malt with a range of hop flavours - some citric, some earthy. A bit too much on the hop amounts for my taste, but an OK beer.

Bottle at William IV, London, during RBESG 2011. Pours cloudy gold with a foam head. Slightl hop aroma, some grains, some citrus. Alright flavor, toasty malts, sugar, citrus. Medium bodied with soft carbonation. An alright bitter finish, fairly well balanced, some grass and resinous pine. Not bad.

Bottle @ King William IV, London. RBESG 2011. Pours cloudy golden with a small white head. Yeast and rubber. Dry with a very unpleasant yeastyness. Messy . .

Cask/gravity at London Drinker ’11. Pours a hazy straw-gold (the server warned about the haze). Head in a hopsack aroma, with lots of pine, a little grapefruit and pineapple. Yet somehow warming and sweet on the tongue, with a touch of marmalade, even as the astringent bitterness hits. Dry and really hoppy aftertaste.
