MesandSim (7118) - London, Greater London, ENGLAND - AUG 3, 2009
A Mes rate: cask at the Harlequin.
Bright gold with a bubbly white collar. Good fruity hop nose but some diacetyl in the background holds it back a bit. Very peaty and earthy in the mouth. Dull citric finish. Really that’s it. Yet another run of the mill blonde.

thewolf (9992) - Kolding, DENMARK - JUL 28, 2009
[RBESG, Sheffield]
Cask @ Harlequin, Sheffield.
Pours hazy yellow-golden with a small, bubbly, white head. Aroma is grainy, light vegetable and some thyme. Low carbonation and a super-nice oily mouthfeel. Flavour is well bitter, good pine, some fruity apricot and lemony zest. Very drinkable, shame about the aroma.

asheft (2269) - Ottawa, Ontario, CANADA - JUL 24, 2009
[cask @ RBESG 2009] Sweet caramel aroma with low floral and very low herbal hops that are slightly vegetal. Almost clear dark yellow with bubbles on top. Pleasant flavour that is nicely bitter and has a light caramel with some lemony floral hops. Light to medium body, moderate carbonation, slight bitter finish.

Borresteijn (3681) - Amsterdam, NETHERLANDS - JUL 21, 2009
RBESG Sheffield, day 2, Harlequin. Handpull. Clear golden, soapy white head. Aroma is fruity with hints of plastic. Flavour is fruity and bitter. I think I had a bit of a bitter fatigue by this time of the RBESG...
