Bottle. Cloudy golden color, medium head. Layer of "stuff" glued to the bottom of the bottle that didn’t stir. Aroma was light, watery. Taste was actually not as bad as it smelled. Still not a very good beer.

It's not worth the 11.50 they are charging, but whatever. I'm getting a french badge. To-fucking-night.

Big bottle bought from a wine shop in Essex. Poured clear golden with a small frothy off-white head. Aroma of citrus, caramel, flowers, straw, yeast. Medium sweetness, moderate bitterness. Medium body, oily texture, average carbonation. Quite liked this.

From old tasting notes. Deep brassy gold color. Large bubbly white head. Light malt aroma. Wonderfully flavorful toasted sweet malt has fruity notes. Hints of grapes and honeydew melon. Bittersweet hop finish. Very good.

11.2 oz capped bottle. Pours a fizzy blonde color with a thick cream foam head and lace. Corny, grassy aroma. Surprised to see a lot of different flavor here. Mostly grassy with a lot of corn and some wheat. Thick creamy body to it. Dry grain finish. Interesting beer.

Clear, brassy gold with a whipped, off-white head. Aroma is malt, grain, a little buttery. Taste is deeply sweet, malt....caramel, sugar. Not bad, a little clingy sweet.
