Bottle from Morrisons, Todmorden. Golden ale with next to no head. Clean and crisp tasting with a slight smoothness from this. Has a light malty character.

Rated as 2014 Fever Pitch. Smooth fresh beginning. Hints of grain and citrus. Smooth and easy to drink. The grain stays till the end, fresh, hints of grainy malt, nearly no bitterness. Not too special.

This beer was brewed to celebrate the 2010 World Cup (football, or Soccer to some) and the English teams participation. The beer will hopefully stay longer in the momory than the England teams perfomances will! Clear 500ml bottle, best before 31 May 2011, drank 2nd July 2010. I suspect it is the same beer that was brewed for the 2006 World Cup also, as it looks and tastes just like the review for that beer (that I’ve just read). The colour was light amber, the head a good white showing at first, it then fell away, but left some good lacing on the ’Old Speckled Hen’ vase shaped pint glass it was reviewed in. The aroma was hops all the way, as was the taste, bitter hoppiness, but not overly so, good dry aftertaste, with some malty sweetness trying to get through the hop flavours towards the end of the mouthfeel. A bit thin in the bodyfeel, but overall, not too bad.

500ml bottle. Pours a slightly hazy golden with a small head. Aroma is fruity malt, some skunk and metallic as well. Slightly spicy start. Nice strong fruity bitter finish but the skunk and metal are there throughout.

Bottle, unfiltered
Golden color. Smells like a cheap Lager. Better flavor: some malt, dry, good body strength and high bitterness.
