Bottle. Appearance is clear, a light amber, some bubbles rising, a frothy white head. Aromas of toffee and caramel, malts, hoppy notes, floral hints with a bit of meadow. Taste- medium mouthfeel, plenty of hop bitterness, fruity hints and some nuttiness, caramel. A bitter finish. Ok.

Bottle from Asda. Poured a clear light amber with a thin broken white head. The aroma is weak malt leading to a medium to weak bitter flavour with some malty, bitter hoppy notes on the palate. The bitterness in the finish isn’t so pleasant.

Deep gold beer with a thin head. The aroma is hops as is the flavour, which is mild but pleasant.

Brown 500ml bottle, best before end of Sept 2009, drank early July 2009. Poured into a standard pint sleeve glass. It was a bottle conditioned beer, so I poured it very slowly and carefully to allow the sediment to stay in the bottle. Because of the pour no head sat on top of the dull amber, dirty old gold coloured body of the beer, it was however far from flat, plenty of bubbles rising upwards told me that. A very slight haze might have been caused by over cooling or the fact both barley and wheat are used in the brew. This is suitable for veggies and vegans, so no normal finnings in the beer, another reason why there was a haze? Next to no aroma, the beer might have been a bit too cold at first, but only a hoppy, yeasty smell arrived even as the beer warmed. Average hop flavour for a UK brewed IPA, some earthy, grassy tastes too, a little spritzy and tangy, a peppery feel to it as well. Strange brew, couldn’t make my mine up if I really liked it or not.

Bottle, Carringtons, Chorlton. Golden pour with a lively white head. Aroma had some fragrant hops , yeast, and citrus notes. Slightly watery palate. Gentle flavour that displayed the same traits as the aroma. Some bitterness in the finish. A nice guzzler to acconpany some spicy fried chicken and rice. Inoffensive on the whole
