3.5 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 14/20

2.8 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 11/20
UPDATED: FEB 26, 2013 Cask (Angleterre, Helsinki) (5:3:6:3:11=2.8)
Slightly plasticky grainy aroma. Pale light gold, tight spongy head. Some pleasant bitter hops, but a bit thin in the body. Quite ale-like in places, I guess they just used lager malts and a slightly lower-than-normal temperature, but this isn’t really a Pils.
Rerate: Cask (Angleterre, Helsinki) (6:3:6:2:11=2.8)
Nice bready aroma. Very perfumed soap. Mouth a bit smacky dry. Too dry. Nah, why did I have this again?
2.6 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 9/20
Cask at the Angleterre, Helsinki, Finland.
Cloudy golden colour with a small white head.
Mild yoghurt sourness, fruits and grainy maltiness in the aroma.
The flavour is fruity sweetness, perfume, some malt and mild bitterness. I don't like this that much.

Cask conditioned at Far From the Madding Crowd, Oxford. Gold with white head. Quite a light body, sharpish, slight flowery, metallic notes in the body. Some light lemon notes from the hop, Saaz perhaps? That type of flavour anyway. Reasonable.
