3 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 11/20
Bottled. Hazy yellow colour, small foamy head. Caramel and alcohol in aroma. Malty flavour with hints of hops, hay and butter. Also some vegetably notes are present. Dry finish.
1.6 AROMA 3/10 APPEARANCE 2/5 TASTE 3/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 6/20
25 Apr 2006 - Very light sweet hop aroma. Clear amber colour, reasonable head and lacing. Hoppy low malt flavour. Thin, simple hop finish and aftertaste.
2.3 AROMA 4/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 5/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 8/20
Hop malt aroma. Clear amber colour with poor head and lacing. Bitter hop malt flavour. Fizzy palate.
1.7 AROMA 3/10 APPEARANCE 2/5 TASTE 4/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 6/20
By Coopers standards this is pretty bad. Over sweet and sugary. What is with the heritage bit... Very out of character for this brewer.
2 AROMA 3/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 4/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 8/20
Small white head, on a clear golden base. Strawy lagery aroma. Light malty taste, some POR too. Plain finish. Dont really see any point to this beer.
2.5 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 2/5 TASTE 5/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 10/20
An orange beer with a disappearing white head. The aroma is sweet with notes of straw and malt, while the flavor is a boring malty one, with a light hoppy end. Boring.
2.6 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 5/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 10/20
Bottle. Hrm...this one is definitely hype over substance. Great looking bottle with white foil up the neck. Impressive name. The actual beer is not a patch on their bottle conditioned ales. Coppery amber in colour with small rocky off white head which does not really last. Stuff all in the aroma, some feint malt, very feint esters, nothing else. Taste is a bit buttery, a little fruity, but almost no balancing hop bitterness. Mouth is fizzy and watery...disappointing on the whole.
2.7 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 5/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 12/20
Bottled. Light hazy yellow colour, some nice floral notes and nothing skunky or rough to speak of, but fairly uninspiring overall.
2.9 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 11/20
375 ml bottle. Slightly hazy golden beer. A touch of peach/apricot aroma. Flavour of honey, peach and apple. Light floral hop character. Light acidity on the finish.
2.8 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 2/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 12/20
Golden colour. Lightly honeyish, bready malt aroma. Somewhat bland, honeyish and a little biscuity. Seems well-enough-made but lacks guts.
3.3 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 14/20
Dark gold, average head, little lace. Solid malt aromas, a little hoppy, a little metallic. Solid malt palate, mild floral notes, crisp dry finish with some cardboard lingering after. I found this really drinkable and refreshing.
