Bottled. A hazy amber beer with a thin beige head. The aroma has acidic notes of vegetables. The flavor is acidic with notes of burnt plastic. Flawed. Thanks yespr for sharing.

Bottle 50 cl. Courtesy of yespr. Hazy amber golden with a dense off-white head. Fruity and caramellish nose with a hint of elderflower. Medium body, a little burned caramel and a dry fruitiness. Even also some lightly burned malt. Not much bitterness. 141208

50 cL bottle. Pours unclear dark brown with a slowly collapsing white head. Dry hoppy and slight herbal aroma. Spiced and dry flavoured with a mild bitterness coming through. Lasting herbal finish.

Bottle, Carringtons, Chorlton. Coppery brown colour with a decent white head. Hoppy aroma with a hint of spice. Crisp, malty flavour with medium bitterness and a dryish finish. Quite a lot to like here.

Bottle at Chris_o’s The Wolf tasting. I’ve been looking for Wagtail beers for some time now so I was intrigued to see how they are. Amber colour with lasting beige head. Flemish white pig aroma (as Urbain would say), rather a nice English beer. Not bad. Pretty good hop. Nice enough.

[i] [b] BCA Bottle from the Dodgi’ Deli’ Cowley Road, Oxford. Had this 23-03-08 [/i] [/b] Lovely colour, deep rich amber great clarity and a nice off-white head. Tasty, fruity and with far more flavour than a 4.5% beer should have. Nice steady bitterness and good full bodied beer, drying towards the end. Lovely beer.
