Aromat kwiatowy. Piwo w smaku wyraźnie chmielowe, goryczkowe. Kolor złotawy, ale jakby lekko mętnawy, napewno nie klarowne. Piana niewielka lecz trwała i utrzymująca się do końca picia tego dobrego trunku.

Sept 2006: First time I have had the bottled version. Different animal to the cask beer I drink when in Southwold. This blonde beer should be cooled before serving, which is unusual for a British beer. The New World hops Chinook and Columbus give the beer its name. Light and refreshing, it is, but the bottle says citrus and grapefruit aromas, not sure I got those, but overall, a fine beer for a hot sunny day.
