Hazy amber beer. Crisp palate, turns a little frothy in the mouth. Sharp carbonated bite delivers a small amount of hop bitterness. Minerally finish and aftertaste. Not bad but nothing interesting.

Bottle 50cl.
Light light unclear medium orange amber color with a average, frothy to creamy, good lacing, mostly lasting, off-white to white head. Aroma is moderate malty, roasted, nutty, moderate hoppy. Flavor is moderate sweet and light to moderate bitter with a average to long duration. Body is medium, texture is oily to watery, carbonation is soft. [20090724]

Bottle 50 cl. Courtesy of madmitch76. Clear amber golden with a creamy off-white head. Some perfumy aroma hops in the nose. Light body, dry caramel and roasted malt. Lightly fruity hops in the finish. 240709

500cl bottle-conditioned. Pours a deep red-amber with a slight haze and a medium-fine fast-disappearing beige head. Quite high carbonation. Aroma of malt, a little banana and lemon, taste is fruity and malty, a bit of biscuit and nuts, a slight metallic tang and a dryish bitter finish.

Bottled. Amber coloured. Unclear. Beige dense head. Fruity and sweetish beer with a light herbal touch. This is in both aroma and flavour. Aroma a tad more distinct than the flavour. Medium bodied. Dry. LIght bitter end with a sweetish touch.

Bottled. A hazy amber beer with a thin orangey head. The aroma has notes of flowers, caramel, and malt. The flavor is sweet with notes of elderflowers, malt, and caramel, leading to a bitter finish. The body is thin. Thanks Papsoe for sharing.

50 cL bottle. Pours clear and golden orange with a small white head. Aroma is mild fruity and light spiced. Dry and mild off flavoured. Bitter and roasted malt. Fruity too. Ends with a light off note and fruity flavour.

Cask gravity at The Rake. Hazy copper, bit yeasty. Ugh, not very good. If Dylan Thomas knew this was brewed in his name he’d be spinning in his grave, assumming he wasn’t too drunk. Not a good bitter but with some fruit salad.

Bottle. Poured with a medium head that soon dissipated. Some bitterness and off putting acidity that is never a good sign in a bottled beer.Not too impressed with this one.

Cask at the Rake Welsh Festival, 1st March 2009. Cloudy light amber with some head. Very strong nutmeg aroma and flavour. Ok palate. The hops work well with the spice, but your enjoyment of this beer will be proportional to how much you like that particular flavour.
