3.6 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 8/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 14/20
500ml bottle from Hippo Beers (4% abv). Hazy golden yellow, not much head. Resin & tropical fruit aroma. Biscuit & citrus fruit flavour. A bit flat. Not Mallinson’s best but still a good golden ale.
3.7 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 15/20
50cl bottle from Westholme Stores, Goring. Another ale from Mallinsons that has the look of a good pilsner - pale straw with a pillow-like white head and fairly heavy carbonation; however the lemony aroma gives the game away; this time, the taste is immediately sharply bitter with a lemony tang and a slightly grainy body; then a long, dry, satisfying, finish. Another excellent golden ale.

3.1 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 13/20
Bottle. An unclear, yellowish golden beer with a dense, white head on top. The aroma is mostly on the citrusy side, with a good dash of orange. Pale malts in the back. Medium body, quite dry, with pleasant carbonation and a nice bitterness. Some pale malts and orange too. A quite straight forward and easy drinkable one, but lacking some complexity. Wouldn’t mind drinking more of it though. 130216
