Our Skipper’s Ticket beer has travelled the seas bringing together three nationalities of hops: the English East Kent Golding, the Czech Perle and the American Willamette. The resultant aroma is a beguiling combination of nuts, spices and floral notes, it matches its exotic aroma with a depth of dark fruits, caramel and earthy spice on the palate and a well-rounded bitterness to finish.

330ml bottle. Clear amber colour with average, thick, frothy to creamy, half-way lasting, minimally lacing, off-white head. Cautious caramel malty aroma, a touch of husk, floral hoppy overtones. Taste is initially floral hoppy with husky, malty basis, later dry with a nuttily touch, hints of nut parings.

Sampled from bottle @ The Hague Tasting. Opaque hazy orange color, small white head. Aroma is totally off. Weird and yuk. Taste is pretty flat, weird and yuk. Not good at all.

Bottle shared at the "Lets celebrate the fact that Dean is already the Mayor of M&S Den Haag even though it’s only been open for 24 hours tasting!". Pours hazy golden brown with an off white head. Aroma of caramel and butter. Flavour is moderate sweet and bitter. Light to medium bodied with soft carbonation. Too buttery.

Bottle at the "Lets celebrate the fact that Dean is already the Mayor of M&S Den Haag even though it’s only been open for 24 hours tasting!". Poured a hazy light amber with a round bubbly white head. The aroma is strange marzipan hop. The flavour is medium bitter with a watery weak woody hop palate and a strange bitter aftertaste. Medium bodied with flat carbonation.

330ml bottle from a holidaying friend. Pours hazy orange gold, very big white head, a touch over-carbonated maybe.... Aromas of fresh orange, light spice and light bready malts. Taste has a good balance, erring towards the orange bitterness of the hops, would have liked a bit more biscuit sweetness. Otherwise a solid beer.
