330ml bottle from trade with Erzengel. Thanks chap! Pours a clear gold, thin white head. Aroma has pale malt, light hop. Taste is a little thin, watery perhaps, some thin pale malt, light fruity nods. Not a lot going on here.

Huge thanks to Erzengel for that one! Bottle looks simple but good. Beer in the glass zippy, deep golden, small head. Malty, light fruity aroma. Starts mild, malty, more and more hoppy-fruity. Shy soapy hints, not too intense. Fruity like lemon, some apricot. Finish mild sourish, well balanced. Not bad.

Many thanks to Erzengel for sharing! A almost clear golden beer with a mid-sized most good lasting white head. Aroma of grainy malt, mild floral hops, citrus. Taste of floral hops, citrus, grainy malt, spicy bitterness.

Bottle from Brausesyndikat, Bielefeld. Fresh floral nose. The beer starts fruity and round. Mild and smooth, easy to drink with a smooth sessionable slightly grainy body and smooth hops there. Not too intense hopped, floral grainy in the aftertaste, round and smooth. Nice sessionable brew. Good for an English-Style Pale Ale.

(swing top bottle, 100cl, 4.8% abv) Hazy, amber colour with a medium-sized tanned foamy head. Slightly buttery, delicately bready and sugary malty aroma with notes of caramel, fruity hints and a tinge of resiny hops. Moderately sweet-bitter flavour, light to medium bodied with a soft carbonation. Mildly bready and toasty malty taste with caramel, resiny and slightly herbal hops; moderately dry and slightly toast-malty finish with buttery and subtle fruity notes, accompanied by a slightly herbal hoppy touch. Solid quality brew. Need to have it on tap. 01.IV.14

Bottle from McTapps, many thanks Sabine. Orange brown color with medium off-white head. Aromatic hoppy aroma with some earthy notes. Taste, starts sweet malty, continues with shy hoppiness with grapefruit, oranges, orange zest. Little bit flat, but overall easy drinkable, good brew.

Poured up on draft at the brewpub into a big goblet like glass that has a narrow sort of Kolsch glass looking shape for the lower half and then a big globe at the top. It has a clear copper body with gold edges that supports a clean smooth head that leaves behind some sheet lacing. The aroma comes across malty, lightly roasty malts and then getting into earthy herb and lemon to lime notes that are somewhat smelling like bitter hoppiness. With more pulls I also get faint fruity esters in there if I take a big pull. The taste has a nice modest resiny hoppy kick that seems vague at first but soon picks up grassy, herbally earth notes and a lemon lime citrus sensation just like in the nose. Around the hop periphery are sweet malt and lightly roasted malts and possibly some crystal malts too. I’m not sure where this beer is trying to go but it is an interesting take on the style. The trouble I’m having with this beer is the stunning Pale Ales I’ve had recently that are still very fresh in memory.
