| 3.7 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 15/20 | May 29, 2009 Cask - The Butcher’s Arms, Herne. A golden yellow coloured beer with a fine and frothy, lasting white head. Nice sweetness on the nose with orangey citrus fruits and a grassy note. The flavours combine this citrus backbone with more grassy qualities as well as a delicate floral tone. Lightish body but packed with flavour. Crisp and refreshing with a lasting palate texture and bitterness as well as a warming sensation in the throat. DruncanVeasey (2710), The Penguin’s Arms, Europe, Warwickshire, England
| 3.9 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 4/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 15/20 | May 9, 2009 Gravity, Rugby 09. Brilliant yellow gold haloed with white. Sweaty fresh squeezed hop aroma suggesting grapefruit and lychee. All that in the mouth with lingering oaty vanilla, digestives, rabbit hutch. Sweaty and bulbous at the strength. Classic festival opener. mabel (2590), Toronto, Ontario, Canada

Clear, medium orange brown body with quick white bubbles. Grassy hops flavour is not particularly bitter, long finish. Medium body. Enjoyable, packs some punch with flavour, not alcohol.

Really pale with a cute white lace.
Big grassy hops on the nose with heavy underlying honey. Quite petrolly.
Big flavours. Hops and cereals fight head-on whilst a tickly bitterness yeilds to mellow hay only to reappear in the back of the throat. All underpinned by tangy marmalade.
Thin and a little grating on the tongue.
Good flavours, if a bit in-your-face. It’s a little hard on the inside of your mouth though.
