Harviestoun Bitter & Twisted (Bottle)

On tap at the Pepperland served in a Tulip glass large white head that goes to a thin lace that lasts thorough the brew . The body of the brew was a pale yellow and clear. Aromas of citrus comes out I first thought this might be a Belgian the citrus is that strong. The malts sweetness is present as well in the nose. Not a terribly bitter brew for being called a bitter. The flavor of sweet citrus is very present. The hops make a light showing in the end note. This brew has a light mouthfeel and good carbonation. This brew has great drinkability, and very sesionable. I had a few tonight with dinner and it was very enjoyable experience

Pour is a blonde with a small white head. Aroma has some fruity qualities with some yeast. Flavor is bitter with mosty lemon and other citrus fruits coming out. Finish is very tart but a little watery in the end. Good for a sample but i think once most people try this they’re not going to want to get another.

Clear bright copper-golden yellow, nice and creamy but quickly disappearing head. Fruity nose with a touch of caramel. Medium-bodied, fruity with nice hints of lemon and orange zest/orange marmalade. Dry and bitter hoppy finish.

Bottle. Golden, with citrus aromas, lemon. I taste orange, then caramel with a bitter finish.

Objectively speaking: Classic English golden ale that has a solid malt extraction, but less of the zesty and fresh hops that I love in that type of beer.
I like: Fresh maltiness despite the travel: bready, but also quite grainy. At 4.2%, it’s hard to ask for more. Very refreshing and to mandatorily be drank by the pint. Excellent low carbonation level.
I dislike: As mentioned earlier, I like more citrus and flowery character in these ales.
