at the brewpub in london: cool trendy place, havent really seen a brewpub in this style before. the beers arent so good though. this one had a fruity nose...less fruit hop flavor and slight malt sweetness. very thin and uninteresting.

Aug, 2005.Mash Bar, Oxford Circus. Residual sweetness gives this more body than the other lagers on the menu, but that sweetness does tip over into a mouldy sweetness like a honey left in a damp cupboard too long. However its the most pleasant beer so far.

Clear apple juice body with no head. Aroma is medium sweet, apple, perfume, faint alcohol. Taste is medium sweet, floral/perfume, some alcohol in finish. Watery light-medium body, low carbonation.

This was by far the best brew that mash had, yet was still a poor example of the style.

Draught, at Mash, Great Portland St, Oxford Circus, London.
Yes, golden to be sure, with needle thin bubbles materializing at the surface. Honey due aroma. Very thinly flavoured. This beer was looking ‘the goods’ but failed comprehensively to deliver. Thin all way round.

Light, spicy nose; pale gold color; low head. Fresh taste, very fruity - like fruit juice. Tight dry bitterness at the end on your teeth and lips, almost metallic. Medium body. Has its own character, but overall rather weak.

London-brewpub: Astringend nose. Yellow, no head, soft carbonation. Little biter side kick, then watery, not much taste left after 1/4 of a second. Ther is no hearty fruity flavor at all - sorry gueys - change your ad for this beer!
