3.6 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 15/20
Pours a slightly fogged gold with a good sized crème head that leaves a mass of lace on the way down. And oops, I got some sediment in the glass. Nose is pretty mild really. Not much going on except slight bitter tone and a mild hop. Flavor is an English bitter for sure. Smooth and consistent, but not very exciting really. Feel has a thicker body to the liquid with an odd sticky texture to it. Decent enough carbonation. Drinkable, sure. It is a good beer. But for the price? A bit too high for one bottle I have to say. Especially for not having any wild character about it.

Pour is a very cloudy golden with a large white head that stays around for awhile. Aroma is a super crisp hop with some biscuit and grass. Flavor is a bit citrus with some lingering hop and pine. Finish is very bitter but smooth. A good sipping beer and at only 4.3% you could a few of these in an evening.

Bottle. Cloudy orange color with a sandy and dense head that lasts forever. Hops and grass in the aroma. Very floral, fresh. Flavor is decent - light bitter finish, good hops. Very easy to drink. Tastes good, smells better.

From the Bottle: Rich, malty, and sweet aroma...but a hint of sour. Big head that goes beyond the top of the glass. Crisp hops with a dry sweetness flavor. Full and meaty mouthfeel.
2.9 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 2/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 12/20
(Bottle 50 cl) Very hazy golden with lots of impurities and a dense, off-white head that leaves some lacework. Lightly citrusy aroma. Medium body with notes of nuts and citrus and a somewhat astringent, leathery bitterness. 101207
3.2 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 13/20
Very pale golden beer. Aroma is lightly sulfurous. Herbal and lightly grassy. Quite noble smelling but lacks the zesty character that a beer like this could show off. Light Goldings-esqe spiciness with a kiss of lemony citrus behind the earthy pale malts.

Bottle 500ml from Waitrose, Lymington. Pours an orangey/amber, slightly cloudy, with a good off-white head. A citrussy hoppy aroma, with a hint of caramel, greets the nose. Nothing overly special about the flavour, just a good honest pint with a fine caramel malt and a decent finish. A good session beer.
