UPDATED: MAR 31, 2011 Bottle at Port Ellen Whisky bar. a bit hazy and pale colour. white head. Great hops on aroma and flavour. Dont know if is the surroundings that make this beer seems so damn good. Quite sour and deliciously hoppy. some yeast flakes in the bottle.. once the yeast poured in glass taste softens.

Aroma of muscat, honey, rich malt, lemon. Very sour flavor, almost lambic. Lots of citrus, dry, tasty. Interesting, but not sure if it is supposed to be THIS sour.

Fin (5749) - Merton, Oxfordshire, England, Oxfordshire, ENGLAND - MAY 15, 2008
Bottle picked up from Westholme, Londis, Goring-on-Thames, Oxon, had this 11-05-08 Hazy golden pour with a nice white head that didn’t stick around for long. Some small yeast clods settling on the bottom of my glass, some mild carbonation, nice fizzy soft lemon with yeast and a good hoppy sting not so bad at all.

Spicy aroma. Grapefruit and a bit of rubber and some smokiness in the far background. Apples. Interresting and unusual taste overall.
