Bottle conditioned, 500ml. Glear gold with foamy head. Extraordinary bottle conditioned bitter, really well done. Heavy dry grapefruit, citrus dryness, loaded with a dry late hop. Bittersweet with a chunky fruitiness. Light malt undertone, a very good bottled beer.

Bottle 28/12/2002 Golden coloured strong in alcohol and hoppy. Smooth on the pale. Slightly bitter lasting finish.

Blimey, this is a bit of a beast. Massive pungent grapefruit hop aroma. Huge citric hop attack on the palate too, but with some biscuity malt and tropical fruit in the background. A mouth-filling body, with a solid structure and oodles of chutzpah. Belligerent bitter finish, maybe a touch astringent. If you like your beers uncompromising and hard-hitting, you'll love this. Perhaps just a fraction too severe and aggressive for me, but a cracking beer nonetheless. 500ml bottle (bottle conditioned) - best before end May 2004 - from beersofeurope.co.uk. Unfortunately, with Coors intent on turning the whole of Museum's output over to White Shield, the future of beers such as this must be in doubt.

i had this on cask in buron upon trent @ the bass museum: this aint your ordinary bass. this is what we should be drinking and they should be exporting??? this beer is a mouthful and has got a bite, great malt hop character, with a nice bitter finish. i love watching a barmaid pull a pint from the cask, its exilerating....go, go on, go and drink cask ales, they are the best!

Bottle conditioned pleasure. This is pure gold boys - drink deep. Fragrant hops of the finest quality. A beautiful mouthfeel - full, rich and luscious. Long twisting bitter finish. You can taste the love and care that's been expended on this beauty. Outshines the hoppy Belgians by a long mile.
