Bottle. A clear, slighlty pale golden beer settling with a fine, white two-finger head. Head diminishes rather quickly though. A faint butterscotchy note blends with pale malts and fruity, grassy hops in the aroma. Soft, quite dry, medium body with grains, grass and hay. Some buttery notes too, and a little bitterness. Quite sweet, buttery finish where the carbonation and bitterness can’t combat the sweetness. Definately not a world class beer, but sure drinkable. Don’t think I would cope with it as an all-nighter though. 091008

Pours a light golden colour with quite a lot of white head. The aroma is grassy and hoppy as is the norm for the style, but it’s perhaps slightly less pronounced in this beer. A nice mellow flavour of hops and citrus fruits. There a malty sweetness on the finish. Quite pleasant.

On tap at Sankeys, Tunbridge Wells. Gold with thin white head. Quite a nice lemon citric hop aroma. Lager feel in mouth. Not overly carbonated but still a bit metallic. Biting hop finish. Really good lager.

(bottle) Pale golden colour with a small foamy white head. Malty aroma with cake dough. Bittersweet flavour, medium body. Malty taste with a fair hop balance that becomes a bit sharp in the finish. Anyway a typical Dortmunder, hoppier than the classical Helles from the south of Germany.

(Bottle 33 cl) Pilsener golden with a very small head. Distinct malty character both in aroma and flavour and only a weak touch of hops. Somewhat sulphurous. 060905
