GBBF. Light haze on this gold beer, little white head. Light dry palate. Mild honeyish malt with rich citrus fruits and a nice grapey touch. Over dry finish but a nice brew.

harrisoni (10950) - Ashford, Kent, ENGLAND - OCT 5, 2012
Gbbf 2012. Clear gold lasting off white head. Its good. Not as good as the 13 guns but still for a thwaites beer. Nelson tropical fruit really comes through. Lovely in fact. Hop sting finish. Good beer.

Scopey (3253) - Croydon, Greater London, ENGLAND - AUG 20, 2012
Cask at GBBF 2012. It pours golden yellow, with a medium white head. The nose is dough, farmyard, hopsack, straw and weak tropical fruits. The taste is light sweet malt, hay, straw and sweet tropical fruit, with a decent bitter finish. Decent flavour and well balanced. Not bad at all.

Cask@GBBF2012. Yellowish golden colour, small white head. Aroma is Nelson Sauvin fruityness, parfumes and mild zesty and floral notes. Flavour is fruity, floral, mildly nectary along with some floral notes. Pleasantly balanced.

kiwianer (2335) - Mönchengladbach, GERMANY - AUG 12, 2012
The head is good, the body golden and cloudy a bit brown. It smells Nelson hoppy. The taste is hoppy, a bit malty, sweet a bit Nelson. OK! 12/11/10/10/-/10
