Nose is biscuits and sweet malts with a drop of honey. Taste is slightly floral with a slight metallic twinge. Ends with hints of lemon but, little finish to speak of. Inoffensive and forgettable.

Zdecydowanie pyszne piwo. Bitter pierwszorzędny. Mocna i trwała piana, mętny płyn i to bardzo. Zapach silnie chmielowy. Bogaty i zróżnicowany. W smaku jest podobnie, a więc bardzo dobrze. Gożki smak, wytrawny finisz. Lekko gryzie na końcu języka. Goryczka dominuje. Bardzo wytrawny bitter. Na uwagę zasługuje także malownicza etykieta.

Cask @ Haymarket, Edinburgh [050213]
Golden amber, clear, thin whiye head with some lacing. Eggy nose, some sulphur, hint of malt, poor aroma. Taste of fairly sweet pale malts, dull citrus fruit, slight honey, some bitter hops, very average. Palate - thinnish body, little oily, bit sticky. Finish has some sweet malt, fairly metallic tail and a touch dry.
Overall - Not keen on egg smells from beer - this just wasn’t a good beer

Bottle from Tesco. Pours a very clear golden brown with a frothy white head. The aroma is rich and fruity. The flavour is bitter and malty with some hoppy bitterness on the palate. It’s a very refreshing drinkable session bitter, but despite the amusing label, its not a classic.
