macdeffe (52), Århus, Denmark Jul 26, 2004 Great Ale. Tasted on Cask in pub in Alva, close to the brewery. Maby this ale doesn’t travel, It was superb. Couldn’t recognise the ale from the one I had on bottle several times. Very nice flowery aroma, and especially the palate was like 5 seconds in heaven harrisoni (5331), Ashford, Kent, England Jul 1, 2005 Cask at Guildford Arms, Edinburgh.
this was the the first time I had this beer and it was a complete revelation. I had never had anything that assailed my senses from the get go like this one. I could sit there all afternoon just enjoying the aroma of lemon citrus and floral american hops. The fact it is only 3.8% amazes me that they can get so much flavour into it. I would happily drink this every week scotty (743), Scotland Feb 9, 2005 Guildford Arms, Edinburgh( off princes Street) Fantastic!!! This pub has a vast range of ales and continental beers on draught, I found the Bitter & Twisted to be the best...hoppy and so satisfying, visit if you can! Braudog (3463), Abu Dhabi, United Arab Emirates Jan 3, 2004 Clear golden and still, except with a 50% head, which is pretty. This has the aroma of celery which stuck around. The flavor is similarly like a fresh salad ... green and crisp, light and fruity. This would be an AWESOME summertime beer.

Pours the color of Heineken. The taste and aroma are singular--I could name some fruits, like pears and grapefruit, but that misses the point. This simply has to be drunk, as it is a style unto itself. The carbonation is low, but not nitrogen flat. The aroma is smoky fruit, as is the tast, with a soft, light round mouthfeel. Amazing how much flavor is packed into this light ale. Tremendous.
