A great golden beer with a fresh citrus, hoppy aroma. This wonderful wholesome organic ale has a dry and bitter finish which brings you right back to earth.

Golden without a head. Has a tasty grainy biscuit flavour, its pale ale tag on the label is more evident in its fruity nose.

Aroma: Hay, grass and faint citrus.
Appearance: Clear golden body with a thin white head that slowly fades. Very light visible carbonation. Light lacing marks.
Taste: Very clean and mild. Flavours of freshly cut grass, earth and pear.
Palate: Thin to medium body with a foamy mouthfeel. Soft carbonation prickle.
Overall: Not the most flavoursome and it’s quite thin - like a cross between a Golden Ale and a Lager.

Bottle from Connolly’s Wines, Solihull. Poured a slightly hazy light yellow colour with a thin broken white head. The aroma is malty leading to a medium bitter flavour with a big malty palate which sticks around in the bitter aftertaste. It’s a pleasant ale, but a little bland and quickly became boring.

50 cl bottle @ home. Rated on 19.02.2009
Aroma has hay, fruyity hops, some citrus and grapefruit. Flavour is somewhat hoppy with hay, citrus, grapefruit and herbal notes. Yet another golden ale.

Bottle from Waitrose, Morningside
Light amber, slight haze, frothy white head, some lacing
Aroma - soft hay malts, hint of spicy hops, not that hoppy - more hay malts, light cereals
Taste - pale sweet malts, soft citrus lemon hops, bit of zest, light grapefruit, some bitter English hops, soft cereals, hay. more hoppy in flavour than aroma
Palate - medium carb, medium body. Finish - dry, some zest, soft citrus, moderate bitter linger, bit of a mineraly metallic linger
Overall - Quite a refreshing golden ale, dryish finish, hops are rather subdued to me, some lemon zest in there. It’s certainly better than average for a golden ale. OK.

Clear gold beer. Light semi dry palate. Very light even malt base with a tiny bit of caramel. The hops are also light and impart dashes of orange and lemon and bitterness. Semi dry finish. Touch of minerals.

Brown 500ml bottle, best before 8 Jul 09, drank on sunny Sunday afternoon in April 09. Poured into a pint vase shaped glass. ’Our golden organic pale ale’ is what is written on the front label and that is what was in my glass, a cloudy pale, golden ale. A small white head sat on top, but legged it to a wisp very soon. Aroma was citrus fruits and hops, very pleasant. Dry, bitter and refreshing with the hops coming to the fore over the citrus notes found in the smell. No real depth to the beer, although it does have a presence, the flavours stay longer than the head did and grapefruit/lemon citrus tang is very evident as you sip the beer. Enjoyable and different to other Bath Ales I’ve had, liked them all.

Bottle at the Beer, Bocce and Boozer tasting, London. Pours clear yellow with a fine, white foam head. Great looks. Sugary straw nose. Light to medium sweet flavor, some hay and straw, faint grass, dough. Medium bodied with fine carbonation. Fairly dry to finish, sweet and doughy, some hay bitterness, moderate sweetness, light grass and light grain. Nice beer.
