Commercial Description:
Bottle: Pasteurised.
The beer has a prominent hop character; a blend of Fuggles, Goldings and Cascade has been used in the recipe to bring the delicate hop flavours & aroma to the fore. The use of Cascade gives a pleasing citrus aroma. Finest pale Maris Otter malt has been blended with Wheat malt and Rye Crystal to provide a full flavoured beer. The lavish use of late hop dominates the malt flavour and results in a satisfying pint.

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.

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.

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]
