Goliath: The Beer to slay a mighty thirst.
A full bodied & robust ruby bitter brewed with Pale & Crystal Malts, with a rich malty taste & a hefty wack of Fuggles & Goldings hops, just the beer to slay that thirst...

Pours hazy copper color with medium white head. Nose is yeast and caramel malts. A bit grassy. Thin body with high carbonation and watery texture. Subtly bitter with some sweetness coming from caramel malts. Aroma of malts, yeast, caramel, herbs. Some metallic off-notes and some sourness in the aftertaste. Finish is a bit dry. Overall, not bad but too watery. Could be better.

Bottle, 0.50l. Clear amber brown color with thick creamy off-white head and average sparkling appearance. Aroma of grass, vegetables, mild fruits and caramel. Taste starts light sweet grainy, following is mild caramelly and fruity, mouthfeel is dry, while finish is mild bitter. Light to medium body, thin texture and average carbonation in palate. Powerless Goliath...

Pours a clear coppery color, topped with a very small off-white head that quickly dissapears completely. Mild aroma is slightly grassy with some minimal caramel notes and a faint soury feel. Taste is mild, malty and slightly sweet at first, mild bitterness in the finish. Light, almost a bit watery. Drinkable, but nothing special.

*Old rating. Best before 31 Jul 11. Smooth beer with lots of caramel and a smooth bitterness. Nice, easy to drink and still full flavoured. Malty Ale bitter aftertaste.
