Bottle conditioned. Gold with wispy white head. Good hoppy aroma with a hint of something sweet/herbal. Prickly carbonation. Sticky on the tongue. Concentrated resiny hop flavours throughout, leading to a gritty alcohol finish. A somewhat unusual summery ale. Enjoyed it.

Oct 7, 2008 Yellow colour. Head crawls down with the beer. Fruity citrusy. Refreshing bottle a bit flowery didn’t quite catch the fennel. Will be back for more though

Sep 19, 2008 Updated: Sep 20, 2008Bottle@Home. Very fruity aroma with a hint of pine. Dark yellow, some floaties, off-white head, good lace. Sweet, bitter, light fruity, bit bready. Full, dry finish. Nice flavors, ok balance.

Sep 4, 2008 Bottle, 6.8%. Hazy golden colour. Lacy white head. Fruity flavour, some dust, a little bread. Vinous aftertaste.

Aug 23, 2008 Bottle from Sainsburys Straiton Edinburgh. Deepish gold, thin white head, with a few suspended bits of yeast hanging about in there too. Nicely spiced nose, good body with a nice clean malty palate, ther’s a bit of bitterness on the finish. Good brew...fennel? cant say I picked that out.

Aug 5, 2008 Bottle, from my dear mother, Sainsburys Taplow. I think Rick Stein has definitely won the battle of the tv chefs when it comes to beer ! This pisses on fearnley- cottage bloke’s crap nettle effort.
Poured a slightly hazy golden with a good lingering creamy white head. . Aroma was sweet with some pine hops and fruit. Fairly lively carbonation. Sweetish, lightly hopped flavour with piney, fruit and hop notes. Quite complex, with good strength. Very refreshing and a really top effort. Would definitely try again...Woof woof !
