Bottle thanks to mesandsim. Aroma is really hoppy, citrus and grassy, american style pale ale character alround. Taste is similar, very appealing indeed, the hop character is really good and exactly what i like in a beer. Very unexpectidly good.

UPDATED: APR 18, 2010 Bottle, shared by fonefan. A clear, golden beer with a decent off-white head. Butterscotch, pale malt, some cookies and a citrusy hoppyness in the aroma. The flavor is much the same, finishing with citrus and some bitterness. Medium lenght. Medium body. Far from a winner, but quite drinkable and with some refreshing qualities.

Bottle. A clear, golden beer topped by a small, white head. Citrusy and flowery nose with biscuity malts and something reminiscent of honey. Biscuity pale malts in the mouth, medium body fullness and with citrusy hops that don’t add much bittterness. Some peppery notes too. A quite tasteful and quenching beer, obviously in better form than the last time I had it. Still, nothing special. 091120

Bottle@Proeflokaal. Fruity and light grassy aroma. Clear yellow color, white head good lace. Light sweet, bitter, light fruity, hints of citrus, light grassy. Also some woodiness or something else that I can’t really figure out. Nice, refreshing ale.

Bottle from Morrisons. Deep gold in colour with a frothy white head. Aroma of jammy fruit with some grassy hops. Flavour began with a touch of caramel before a hoppy finish. Good.
2.5 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 4/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 10/20
Copper gold. Hop aroma; later some sweet, buttery caramel. Taste is mainly hoppy though, and somehow the result isn’t totally pleasing.

Bottle. Poured a dark orangey colour with a medium size head. Plenty of citus aromas, the taste is quite fresh with a sharp bitterness and ends with a dry finish.

UPDATED: MAY 31, 2008 Jan 2008
500ml bottle from Morrisons. A vegetable malt with some spice. Hops are not well balanced between the English and the American. Hops are quite firm, but not fresh and fragrant - a dull bitterness, rather cardboardy and powdery. Some greasy butter in here. Not impressed. [2.4]
May 2008 Floral fragrance. Nicely balanced. Tasty and refreshing. [3.2]
3.5 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 14/20
UPDATED: JAN 17, 2008 Bottle, out of the BHS selction bucket and back-to-back with the Newt. Orange amber with a slick of white suds, and notably silky m/f. Nose sweetly citrussy and pollen-sprinkled, with obvious peach, rose, orange and elderflower. Flavour-wise, plenty more of the same- aromatically floral and Turkish-delight accented with an assertive hop bitterness in the finish preventing things getting overly cloying or perfumey. Refreshing, tastily hopped ale.
