3.6 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 5/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 14/20
Bottle. A bit lively upon opening but not enough to put you off. Slightly cloudy with a gentle bitterness. Some malts surface after a time as does a trace of citrus. Interesting and pleasant.
2.9 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 2/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 12/20
Brown 500ml bottle, no artificial or genetically modified ingredients.
Poured into a Veltins Pilsner glass.
Clear and bright, golden and lager looking (the glass helped to give the illusion), withits white head.
The aroma however told you this wasn’t a lager/pilsner, the hops and yeast coming up from the glass instantly said, The UK.
Very English in the taste, clean and bitter-sweet feel to it. Dry with an even more dryness in the aftertaste. A lot more body to it than the colour indicates.
All in all, not bad.
