3.2 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 14/20 zimbo (332) - - DEC 5, 2012With a colour reminiscent of old gold this gives the appearance of being a lager. Gooseberry element def in there. Chewy, subtle, spritzy and really no all that much like a fruit beer.
2.6 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 4/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 11/20 DrSilverworm (2733) - Cincinnati, Ohio, USA - MAY 24, 2013
12oz bottle, shared by robotopera. Best by June 2010. Hazy golden - orange color. Little white head. Medium body. Lighter, smooth, brighter carbonation. More dry texture. Lightly soapy. Some kind of wildberry type flavor, what I assume is gooseberry. Some sweet, kind of blonde malty flavor. Light spice. Weird soapy aftertaste. Ok... Kind of interesting. Better than expected for being about 3 years old

Bottle. Sweet tart gooseberry, honey, and bready wheat malt aroma. Hazy honey gold with a small white head. Sweet nondescript berry, bready wheat malt flavor. LIght body, moderate carbonation. I liked it.
3.1 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 2/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 13/20 bartlebier (463) - Baden-Württemberg, GERMANY - MAY 12, 2013
33cl bottle bierpost, BB 05/2013. - Pours an unctous pils-type gold with quickly collapsing head. Nose of cereal and lemonade, like a topfermenting Kölsch with stale honey. Hard to pick up on any gooseberry, but I get heather honey and coastal herbs (some tang, almost peat) fruit peel, qumquat, a pleasant late herbal bitterness. A dankish veil coupled with the undefinable green wild currant spice, mild but unexpected peat and oily mouthfeel make this less than refreshing, but not an altogether failed experiment either.

500ml bottle from Beer Hawk - Light lager style body of a darkened yellow brown nature, with a small fizzy head. Nose is gooseberries, a bit musty, sour winter fruits. Taste is sour gooseberries,citrus, and unripe grapes. Bitter and sour finish, long and lasting.
3.3 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 13/20 jamestulloch (477) - Edinburgh, SCOTLAND - MAY 2, 2013
Aroma: Elderflower, tangerine and sour white grapes.
Appearance: Hazy pale golden body with a white fluffy head. No visible carbonation.
Taste: Sharp lemon and juicy grapefruit flavour. Like a lager but with more of a fruity character.
Palate: Medium body with a slightly chalky mouthfeel. Soft carbonation.
Overall: Given its low score, I enjoyed this more than I expected I would. It’s light, fruity and refreshing - an excellent summer beer.
2.7 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 5/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 11/20 Gurthnar (606) - Bratislava, SLOVAK REPUBLIC - APR 25, 2013
Bottle from Brewdog Slovensko. Clear golden colour, short lasting white head. Aroma is not very interesting to be fair. Fruity, some hints of hops, but it reminds me most of industrial macrobeers. Lightly oxidized. Taste is sweet, some honey, fresh fruitiness. Later floral and lightly acidic (could be the gooseberries). Finish is watery, neutral, bitter, lightly sourish. Makes me wonder if it was not impaired in some way... but the best before is 8/2014. Probably "Brewed with lager malt, wheat, bog myrtle, hops and meadowsweet then secondary fermented with ripe Scottish gooseberries." is just not the way to go...

Srednie, a liczylem na niesamowite wrazenia smakowe. Piana mala co jest czeste w tym browarze braci Williams. Kolor leciutko, ale luciutko metne. Troche aromatu cytrusowego ale z poczatku, w zmaku gdzies w oddali zaznaczyl sie ten agrest. Ogolnie zawiodlem sie
