Previously sold as Circle Master in the UK.
Traditionally craft brewed in Oxfordshire using organically grown English Barley Malt and Organic Target Hops.
Scarecrow is a wonderfully refreshing Golden Ale evoking lazy, hazy days of summer in golden meadows & ripe barleyfields. A winning combination of tart citric fruit flavours perfectly balanced by a rich biscuity maltiness and rounded off with a spicy bittersweet finish.

500ml bottle. Clear orange to golden colour with small frothy white head. Fine but disappearing aroma hop note, grassy. A fruity dark berries malt basis remains. Taste starts somewhat neutral, then the fruity malt takes place, a yeasty smack accompanies. Papery finish.

Enligt bryggeriet en gyllene pale ale på 4,7 där Targethumle använts. Färgen är ljus bärnstenstensfärgad med ett ganska lågt skum av små bubblor. Doften är blommig med nyanser av lätt parfymerat färskt trä. Detta går igen i smaken som är lite blommigt murrig, som en mossig skog efter ett skyfall. Samtidigt frisk, stram och lite mer än medelbesk för att vara engelsk. Lite egen karaktär som fungerar väl.

Refrigerated bottle poured into a shaker. Pours a clear deep golden with medium cream colored head that dissapates. A little lacing, medium carbonation, and light body. Taste is light malt, some breadiness, and finishes with a light hop. More like an english pale ale rather than an ESB.

0.5l bottle. Pours a clear peachy-bronze body with a bubbly and lacing head. Wet wheat, some yeast but otherwise quite anonymous nose. Low carbonated with a watterish mouthfeel. Hard to describe but it almost tastes organic. Yes, there is a slightly dryish finish, but.. Neeh, not quite sure about this..

500 ml bottle. Golden body with a creamy white head. Aroma of malt, grass and a bit perfumed hops. Feels like a sweet aroma. Flavor is sweet malt, grain, moderate bitter and a bit metallic. Medium body and actually everything feels a bit medium here, a straightforward ale.
