2.4 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 2/5 TASTE 5/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 10/20
Bottle. Golden brown with no foam. Aromas are biscuit with light apricot jam. Butter and grain with toast and light raisins. Flavours are biscuit and lemon with lager grain malts. Dry on the finish with too much carbonation. Some rubber on the aftertaste. Charles isn’t too good at brewing.
3.1 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 13/20
500ml bottle from Waitrose - a bit thin, with a respectable taste. Golden body, thin white head... a bit of fruit in there, maybe some ice cream notes of vanilla and such like, Nothing special mind you, but very drinkable.
2.9 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 11/20
Far too easy to drink. Very mellow. Not particularly distinguished. Medium bodied, light bitterness, citrus lemon top notes, clean finish.
1.9 AROMA 3/10 APPEARANCE 2/5 TASTE 5/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 7/20
Bottle all the way from Waitrose. A malty aroma but has the flavour of a poor 1970's lager with a strange and quite unpleasant aftertaste. Will avoid in future.
