[Cask from The Three Judges] Fruity, peach notes, perfumed hops. Light fruity palate with a dry, perfumy finish.

Cask Stillage at the Metropolitan Cathedral Crypt, Liverpool 19/02/2003 Clear golden coloured and pale. Slightly dry lasting finish.

This was very hazy when poured, head non existent.The nose is quite pleasant, light, fruity and fresh, a lightly flavoured beer, not much to it to be honest. 39p from a dump bin in my local Morrison, BBE date is Dec 2005, two bottles only, they also had some Coopers sparkling ale, also at 39p!!!

Bottled. Golden amber beer with a smoothly caramel and hopped aroma. The flavour is quite grassy, slightly hopped and slightly fruity. Overall a good ale.

Pours cloudy light cold with a very small white head. Strange aroma, quite funky / musty. Reminds me of rotting oranges. Taste is just as strange, very musty/funky, feel is very very thin. I think this may be off, either that or very "unique".

Pale amber coloured. Sweet and weak aroma of hay. Very boring and watery. Not much hoppiness anywhere.

Bottled. A nice orange gold coloured beer with no head and little carbonation. The aroma is really hoppy, citrus notes especially oranges shine out. The taste too has good hop qualities and is quite thick in the mouth. There is a little off-putting sulphorous note hidden in there, but for a 4% hoppy British beer it’s really good.

From A Small Bottle.Sort of golden in colour,ok head,weak malt aroma,jif lemon and hop taste.
