yespr (11901), Copenhagen O, Denmark Oct 1, 2009 From cask at the Rake. Pours clear and golden yellow with a small white head. Aroma is solid peachy and grapefruity. Bitter, fruity and mild malty base flavoured. Very crisp and vibrant hops flavoured yet also smooth and not overly hoppy. Bitter and dry finish. ekstedt (2420), Göteborg, Sweden Sep 19, 2009 Updated: Sep 20, 2009Cask at Akkurat, Stickholm, Sweden. Shady golden, small white head. Herbal and floral hop aroma with a light fruity/bready maltiness. Light bodied, soft carbonation. Dry with nice long bitter finish. Bullit (1321), Glasgow, Scotland Sep 13, 2009 Cask @ pub, Brighton. Light golden colour, white head. Aroma is soft malty. Flavour is hoppy and malty, with a hint of biscuit. Worth a rerate. ladnewton (212), London, Greater London, England Sep 1, 2009 Cask at the Evening Star, Brighton England on 29th August 2009. Pale golden with a white effervescent head of foam. Exquisitely hoppy with floral aromas and well balanced grassiness in the main kick - this being offset by soothing feelgood malt. Refreshing and easy drinking on a crisp, mildly textured mouthfeel. At the Evening Star, Hophead is served on its absolute best, and always knocks me sideways with its flavour at such a low strength. Superb and one of my favourite beers of all time. TheGrandMaster (1854), Auckland, New Zealand Aug 12, 2009 Cask at GBBF ’09, light gold with a bubbly white head. A good floral hop aroma. A mouthfeel that does a good job of balancing the hops and malt. The citrus bite increases through the swallow. joe19612 (686), camberley, Surrey, England Aug 9, 2009 Cask. at GBBF 2009. Golden colour with white head. Aroma is citrus, hoppy, quite floral too. Taste is hoppy, crisp, grassy, citrus. Well balanced and refreshing.

ChristianScheffel (4481), Odense, Denmark Jul 29, 2009 Hazy yellow with a small white head. Fruity and grainy aroma with some wheat notes.
