The L’Eroica beer has been brewed to reflect the Tour De France event coming to Britain for the first time and reflects one of the great styles of British beer a Pale Ale. It provides a showcase for a blend of classic English hops including Challenger, Fuggles and Bramling Cross that give the beer a crisp and refreshing taste – what could be better after a long bike ride.

Bottle from Booths, Media City. Clear, slightly paler golden ale with a thin head. Hopped ale, with a few malts, some floralness, and an easy-drinking texture.

500ml bottle @ Chez Sophie, Shrewsbury as ’Handsome’. Pours clear gold, large white head. Aroma is floral peppery English hops. Taste continues, nicely balanced and rather refreshing with a smooth sweet malt presence.

Bouteille 50cl, merci Pierre T. BB 18/06/2016. Dorée, col blanc Arôme offre un bouquet fruité noble anglais, malté modéré apportant un léger côté grains, caramel, fin pâle. Levure perce en rétro. Palais reste assez simple dans une impression très anglaise, note pâle, crisp avec un citronné prenant et herbacé axé sur l’usage anglais noble. Fini est sec mais gardant une certaine douceur fleurie.

Bottle thnx to Martin ! Pours very clear blonde. Small white head. Smell is weak, some maltyness. Taste is midly bitter, with some malts. Balancedand drinkable in a way UK is ruler. Some hoparoma as well. Nice bitter, malty-tasting aftertaste. Like this beer, for an easy-drinker during summers this could be one I order often.

Nice fresh and easy drinkable English pale ale. No fancy pancy. Just a very session able and ok ale.
Lovely orange golden color with a fine off white head. Herbal, malty, a bit fruity and mild citric. Medium body and an average carbonation. Ok balance between sweetness and bitterness.
[Bottle from The Vineyard in Belfast, Northern Ireland]
