albertane (242), Nottingham, Nottinghamshire, England Jun 29, 2008 Cask at the King William IV, Nottingham. This pale gold ale has an earthy aroma. The flavour is very refreshing with grapefruit dominating. The finish is bitter. Kingston Topaz is nicely smooth on the palate.
DruncanVeasey (1612), Burbage, Leicestershire, England Mar 15, 2008 Cask, Leicester Fest ’08 (Saturday afternoon session). Full-on grapefruity hop refreshment with lingering bready malt afters. Punishing IBUs dabbed with vanilla. Headless and pale. Leafy citrus aroma. Zesty and pleasant, if a bit tired. StueyD (590), King’s Lynn, Norfolk, Norfolk, England Jul 28, 2006 A dark, golden orange coloured beer with a weak, white head. A light, citrusy hop nose with a malty finish. The taste is dry and hoppy, citrusy again, with a dry, biscuity malt finish. (Cask - @ The Fox & Hounds, Heacham, Norfolk). harrisoni (5106), Ashford, Kent, England Jul 25, 2006 Cask gravity at Kent BF 2006. Gold colour with thick white head. Strong citrus hop aroma. Grapefruit and tangerine. Creamy in mouth, bit nutty. Hop is also quite earthy on end. Longish earthy tangerine finish. My type of beer if not perfectly executed.

Golden coloured hoppy and slightly fruity. Some bitterness in a dry lasting finish.
