oh6gdx (18799) - Vasa, FINLAND - JUL 24, 2011
Cask@Craft Beer Co, London. Golden colour, small white head. Aroma is fruits, some herbs, mild floral notes as well as some sweet maltyness. Flavour is quite much the same, with the malts giving it a quite crisp flavour. Pleasant and wellhopped!

stravale (1371) - Edinburgh, SCOTLAND - JUN 20, 2011
Cask @ Trembling Madness, York. 160611 Golden ale with thin white head. Aroma of spicy citrus hops. Taste - hoppy beer with peppery, spicy citrus hops. Palate has a lingering bitter finish. Not the best of the Thornbridge range I’ve tried, but still a good beer
