Award winning Mad Goose is a zesty pale ale with a refreshing citrus finish, inspired by our own fearsome feathered friend. Her hiss was far worse than her bite except around mating season when it was best to stay inside for another well earnt beer.

Keg (not bottle but certainly not cask!) at Bishops Arms Östersund. Lovely English ale aroma in there. Golden colour. Some chemically biterrness in the taste (either pub or beer's fault). High carbonation. (17/3/21) Keg at bishops again. The last of the keg but frankly much better than before. Easy drinking ale that was no problem to sink 3 pints of. 3.4 to 3.7.

Dark gold/light amber with small frothy white head. Aroma of citrus, malts, pine. Moderate carbonation quite fizzy on the palate, medium body. Flavour of malts, caramel, grapefruit, moderate to strong hoppy bitter finish which is balanced effectively by sweetness and malts. I reckon the bitterness IBU is quite high here, it takes some great beer craft to balance these flavours. Will like to try this on cask when pubs re-open.

Many thanks for this intensivy hoppy ale to dantomlinson. Mega chmielne, moze aromat niezbyt tak intensywny ale smak i zwlaszcza posmak juz tak, bardzo dlugi goryczkowy finisz w takim tradycyjnym stylu. Barwa jasna zlocista niczym elegancki pilsner, ze srednia wlasciwie mala piana, ale szklo young'a oblepia tak konkretnie niczym ruski klej do butow.

Bottle from trade with Dantomlinson, many thanks, man. Amber color with thick white head. Aroma of citrus hops. Taste, solid malty base with toffee followed by moderate zesty hoppy bitterness. Good.

Bottle. Clear golden body with a thin white head. Low carbonation. Good lacing. Aroma of grass, cereal and earth. Flavour of grain and bread with a bitter, tangy finish. Thin body with a watery mouthfeel. Soft fizz. Straightforward and easy to drink.

(Bottle) Lightly hazy amber with big foamy white head. Very nice aroma - sweet, piney, floral hints. Light body, good carbonation. Nice balance of caramel malt and hops. Hops give some nice fruity notes at the start and pleasant bitterness. Good beer.

Bottle from ASDA. Rough pour yields an i stant foamy head, which subsides to a thin cap. Malty aroma, slightly sweet. More caramel malts in the taste, plus a nice zingy bitterness. Solid.
