3nd January 2008
Orange brown beer. A little malt. Subtle banana and a little sweetness in the dry finish. Okay.
2.6 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 2/5 TASTE 5/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 11/20
Bottle 50cl. A clear amber beer with no head and no carbonation at all !! A basic bitter, medium malty, good hops presence specially at the finish, some grassy notes, not complex at all, bit watery.
3.2 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 13/20
Pous a hazy gold with a thin off-white head. Aromas of caramel, fruit and yeast. A sweet flavor with the wheat showing through just a bit, mild bitternes. Bitter fruity finish. Very drinkable.
2.9 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 10/20
The flavor has some wheat, some light carmel. As well some bready notes. There is even some fruit here.
The aroma gives off some solid floral notes and some citrus. I think the best part of the beer.
Pours a hazy amber with a nice white head and a little lacing. It has a lot of carbonation.
It finishes with a real light bitterness but sort of dry as well. It sort of reminds of a cross of wine and champagne on the finish. This beer is a little different. That would be the best way to sum it up. But it’s worth a shot. It’s no session beer.
3.4 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 14/20
Bottle from Sac Bevmo. Pours clear golden with a decent white head and a strong floral aroma. There is a standard English "real ale" flavor with more hop bitterness than usual. A decent session beer.
3.6 AROMA 9/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 13/20
Certainly "complex" beer, much more than expected. Strong wheat and yeast notes, with some vanilla, caramel and leaves notes here and there. Taste came up a bit unexpected, with the floral/sprucy side leading (and surprinsing, due to hops being distant third as far as aroma is concerned). Still.... something was missing. Bitterness. I just expected something a little more bitter, and certainly something better considering the aroma on this one. Good one, mainly due to its complexity.
3.2 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 15/20
UPDATED: OCT 7, 2010 Not the greatest of bitters but still pretty good. I usually like but not love Wychwood’s products. Definitely on the lighter side. - Going to update this and say that a recent bottle I had was much better than earlier and had a lot of qualities of a cask beer. Much more complex flavor. Serving: Bottle
3.8 AROMA 8/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 16/20
Pours a hazy amber with a nice creamy head. The aroma is incredibly malty with notes of carmel, bread and yeast. There’s a gentle sweetness to the initial taste followed by a little bitterness on the finish. Hints of vanilla, caramel and toast dance on the tongue. I really enjoyed this beer.
