Cask at Nags Head. Half-pint shared with Finn. Clear warm golden body, patchy white head, fair lacing. A yeasty ester to a malt-fruity aroma. Malt-fruity flavours of mid-sweet grain and yeasty fruitiness to the ending. Okay, but perhaps not in its best condition. (Great Malvern 01.02.2020).

Delt med Rune. Gylden. Filmskum. Klar. Lett gjæraroma. Smaken søte bær. På grensen til kvalmende. Tung bærdominert ettersmak.

Can. Unclear golden color with white head. Aroma is herbal, mints, pale malts. Taste is herbal, pale malts, a touch vanilla. Oily mouthfeel with natural carbonation. Classic, but good!

Can, thanks Fin. Hazy golden, off-white head. Very perfumed, lady grey nose. Dry, minerallic body, light iron, herbal, citric, lemongrass, earthy hop notes on the tongue. Dry chewy finish.

Can, oh yes a Hooky can, is this a first? Courtesy of Geraint and Helen, cheers you two. Consumed at home Thursday 28th February 2019 after a couple of hours of fitting a drawer fridge and now cooking a Spaghetti Bolognese and listening to Marc Riley on 6 Music. Pours light hazy, looks like a chill haze. Soft in the mouth, a touch of dusty hops, middling bitterness. Something between a bitter and a golden, it's a solid if safe beer.
