2.6 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 10/20
@ King William, Bath. Golden-amber. The aroma has a remarkably deep toastiness. Again the palate is toasty, not much else. Too simple. Thin toastiness like an Arab non-alc.

4.0% Draft. Clear gold beer. Dry semi crisp palate. Reasonably well balanced beer. Hops just dominating the malt. Hops are fruity but mild. Malt is light and slightly sweet. An unwelcome sulphur streak brings things down.
