Bottle from Morrisons. Pours an almost clear golden colour with a medium sized throthy white head. Aromas of bread, biscuits and a touch of honey. Taste is bready, biscuity, a little spicy and fruity. Fairly lively mouthfeel with an earthy hop on the finish. Medium to full body. Not bad

500ml bottle. My 50th gold ale rating. Dark gold towards light amber, small white head, little retention. Aroma of malts, floral and fruity hops. Taste is malts, and then a sweet fruity resin, a little zest, raisin, a nice long bitterness. A nice smooth moderate body and mouthfeel. I enjoyed this, it packs some good flavours and has a nice level of bitterness. Hops: Challenger, Bobek and Aurora

Cask - Pours a clear yellow gold colour with a small white head. Aroma is light toasted malts with some apple notes. Moderately sweet and malty taste, some citrus and hop notes give a little bitterness and a drying finish.

Pint off cask at the Lord Abercrombie. A rich golden ale in a very English style, with lots of malt and not much at all in the way of hops. It had more oomph about it than many other golden ales, but it just wasn't that exciting. Perfectly drinkable though.

Handpull cask at the Swan in the Rushes, Loughborough. Light gold, clear as a bell with a gentle little white head on top. Light malty aroma with some lemon, sticky bun and a touch of sulphur. Sweetish taste with bready malt and some citrus hops. Heavily astringent finish. Okay.
