Castle Eden Ale is a light, creamy golden ale with a late addition of Styrian Goldings hops giving it an interesting contrast between an initial sweet surge of flavour followed by a slightly bitter aftertaste. See: Golden Smell: Honey, Molasses Taste: Sweet, Rich Hops: Target, Stryian Goldings Malt: Pale Ale Note: Brewed at Cameron's and then at Seaham again at some point.

Delt med Rune. Gyldenbrun. Teppelacing. Lavt tett skum med litt farge. Karamellaroma. Saman mere karamell. Lett tørr bitter avslutning. Bra - men ble litt ensformig.

Cask conditioned at Cockney Pub, Århus
Copper color, poor head. It has a light apple aroma. Quite watery mouthfeel, with a little caramel taste and ordinary to sub-ordinary bitterness, still with a touch of apples. It reminds me the apple touch from homebrewing kits. Easy.
