Commercial Description:
Bottle: Pasteurised
A full-bodied lager with lots of malt and hop character. A touch hoppier than many lagers yet perfectly balanced with lots of fruity hop character and fragrance.

Pours a light golden color, with a white head that lasts for a few minutes. Strong hops taste for a lager, some grassy notes, and a little carmel in the background. Maybe a little citrus in the taste, too. Pretty complex taste for a lager. Goes down very smooth, with the right level of carbination. My experience with organic brews is that they can be harsh and course, which makes this beer all that more impressive. Great lager!

Bottle, pours a clear yellow with a decent head. Aroma is kinda malty very weak. Flavor is sweet and a little bit tangy. Body is thin, kinda boring beer.

Bottled: Wanted a bit more from this beer! Pours a golden colro with a head that disapears to a white lacing. Smells of malts and tastes of sweet malts with hints of fruits.

Appearance: Pours a clear, lightly effervescent, yellow body topped with a respectable, snow white head. Smell: Pale malts with a pleasant floral note and just a hint of cracked pepper. Taste: Pale maltiness, lightly sweet and with a vague grainess in the background. A drop or two of citrus. Floral hop character with a mild, restrained bitterness. Hints of caramel work their way in as it warms. Final hop bite on the otherwise sweetish finish. Mouthfeel: Medium-bodied. Medium carbonation. Drinkability: A very competent lager from Samuel Smith.

Overall, a very good lager. Pale yellow gold in colour with a thin head of foam along the glass. Mild carbonation with aroma of flowery hops and nuts. Taste is medium hop tasting with a slightly bitter finish. Bottle from Kensington Wine Market.
