Poured into a perfect pint. Cool old-timey medicine bottle that is unfortunately green. 3.0 A: Lightly hazed light orange color. Not quite one finger of frothy white head. Retention is about average and a very short ring of lacing is left. 3.5 S: Earthy and minerally with a dry crackery and grainy maltiness. Little bit of toastiness. Grassy and earthy hops. Mild yeastiness. Pretty standard for the style, which is good enough for me. 3.5 T: Taste is like the nose. Earth and mineral. Dry, light toastiness, cracker and grainy malts. Mild yeast, mild-moderate bitterness, grassy hoppiness. 3.5 M: Lighter medium body. Good moderate carbonation. Crisp and dry and smooth. 3.5 D: Decent beer that has no faults.

Location/Date:Bottle on May 8th, 2013.

Appearance: Pours a clear orange.
Aroma: Aroma is sweet, nearly like a biscuit.
Taste: Faint bitter, light butter, biscuit.
Palate:Light body.

Summary: This beer is okay - I’m unsure if the bottle was stored properly, or if I’m not looking for the right notes.

Bouteille 500ml sous le nom "St Peter’s English Ale". De couleur orangée et voilée. Nez légèrement fruité (agrumes), de grains de malt, léger de houblon floral et herbeux. Moyenne-mince en bouche et peu pétillante avec une texture aux petites notes huileuses. Goût légèrement fruité (agrumes, traces de pommes et d’abricots) lors de l’entrée en bouche suivi d’un goût malté légèrement sucré du genre caramel très doux avec des notes de pain et de grains. Parallèlement, l’on retrouve un goût légèrement amer de houblon floral aux notes herbeuses. Post-goût moyen, légèrement amer de houblon floral aux notes herbeuses avec des traces fruitées (zeste d’agrumes). (2006)

A nice bitter but for the abv there are better for the flavor and abv not the best. It's okay. Organic. Flat from cask. ---Rated via Beer Buddy for iPhone

Bitter, sharp and metallic. Flat and a bit malty. Its hard to make a good organic -- rated via 'Find A Beer' for Blackberry 10

Aroma: Metal, grain, honey and a light peppery spice.

Appearance: Clear golden body with a thin white head. Average carbonation. Very light lacing.

Taste: Like the aroma - metal, bread and grain. Caramel and citrus hints. Nice hop bitterness but lacking in character and flavour.

Palate: Thin body with a watery, slightly oily texture. Soft carbonation.

Overall: Tastes somewhere in between a Pilsner and a Pale Ale. Unfortunately it’s watery and a bit dull - not one I’d have again.

UPDATED: APR 4, 2013 Dość wyraziste w smaku tresciwe i goryczkowe to organiczne ale. Piana mala ale jakos sie trzyma. Przewazaja, a wlasciwie wystepuja tu tylko nuty chmielowe, zarowno w smaku jak i zapachu. Czyli tak jak przystalo na dobrego bittera. Dodatkowy plus za ekologiczne surowce.

500ml bottle. Pours a clear light orange, with a good sized foamy white head. A pretty pint. Nose is caramel/golden syrup notes, metallic/mineral notes, faint spearmint, and malt. The taste is light caramel followed by a clean hard water note, malt, and a better than average amount of metallic hops. It’s simple, and effective. Makes me think of a Austrian lager with some caramel thrown in.

hay, resin, golden, hazy, white foam, light body, lively, nice ale, not far off lager in taste, nice and light
