johndoughty (1580), cheslyn hay, West Midlands, England Dec 30, 2006 Lovely crisp and fresh flavour. Hoppy with some dryness. Lingering pleasant aftertaste.Impressive. rauchbier (2870), Isle Of Beer, Lincolnshire, England Jan 7, 2007 Bottle, from Sainsburys. Gold, thin white head and moderate condition. Low peppery citrus hop and gentle grain aromas, quite soft in the mouth with some fruity grain contributing a slight tanginess and a thin chalky bitterness, slight grainy sweetness in the finish but the hops dominate and linger longest.
Magic_dave6 (3642), London, Greater London, England Jan 18, 2007 Aroma gives noit to much but then it is a bit cold, citrus and floural grassy notes ontop of biscuit malts. Taste is similar though more obvious citrus up front however i prefer it a bit more in-you-face with the hops. Mungo (2474), Southampton, Hampshire, England Oct 13, 2006 Bottle. Paler. Hoppy nose - some hionts of citrus and good peppery herbal aromas. Minimalistic dryish malt allosws hops to take centre stage. Quite pleasant. harrisoni (5106), Ashford, Kent, England Oct 13, 2006 500ml bottle from Sainsbury. Golden, no head. Hoppy aroma. Resiny Challenger, fragrant Hersbrucher. Some biscuity malt. Too fizzy in mouth, not a huge flavour in mouth. Citrus hops on end. Little if any malt character. Very clean. Nice citrus hop finish. Pleasant if not earth shattering.
