Bottle at Black Sheep, Dublin: Hazy orange coloured brew with an Geallic approach, flowery hoppy taste and some slightly smokiness.

Clear blond appearance with thin head. It's a malt forward Golden Ale with a touch of soft fruitiness akin to a Belgian Blond.

Deep golden color, darker than I was expecting. Big off white head, some decent lacing. Caramel and bready aroma, some reding hops in there. Taste is bready, caramel, honey, some floral hops. Nice easy summer beer.

Hand pumped from the cask. The beer starts smooth, fruity. The mainpart is fruity, hints of apples, dough, nearly no bitterness. The aftertaste is long, fruity with Ale-character without bitterness, nice. Could be a bit deeper in character, but nice and still character full --> 10/12/11/10
