Hazy gold beer, small white head. Light dry palate, mild carbonated nip. Dry pale malt, touch of paper but otherwise fresh. Light hops, light bitterness, light floralness! Dry finish, not bad but for Crissakes put some more hops in!

Quite a floral hoppy aroma. Taste is quite clean and fresh. There’s a slightly soapy flavour and some citrus too.

Slightly cloudy well hopped pale ale. Good nose and the exotic fruits provide an excellent taste in a medium bodied ale. Yellow with practically no head.

500ml bottle. Pours dark gold with a medium head. Aroma is floral and grassy hops. Taste has mild grass and some spicy herbs. A bit bland.

Golden blonde body, clear and fairly bright: on top a weak, thin covering of white bubbles which soon became thinner and less of a covering. Supposed to have "a Herbal, Berry Fruit & Floral Aroma’ according to the front label of my 500ml bottle: well the Polish Hop used (Marynka) may well produce those smells in buckets but I struggled to find such esters and I certainly tried. OK, it does have a mild floral sniff as it warms in the glass but otherwise pretty odourless really. The taste is fairly bland to be honest: some hop bitterness and hints of citrusy sourness but very little to get your taste buds excited. Body depth is fine for such a one dimensional brew but this isn’t a beer I’d buy loads of. In fact it is now only 99 Pence a bottle in my local B&M Bargains Store and I haven’t bought any.

Cask at Wellington, Birmingham
Golden color. Mild aroma, light bread. Light body and mouthfeel; light caramel flavor; dryish finish.
The single hop is not really shining.

50cl bottle from Westholme Stores, Goring. Straw with a middling white head; pungent grassy hop aroma; some citrus flavour with just a hint of red fruit and a light, slightly muddy, body; and an uninspiring finish. Interesting, but not great.

Cask at the Bridge, Kingswinford. Pours gold with a medium head. Aroma is dirty grass with some tropical fruit. Taste is grassy, grainy and a bit dirty. A little bitter. Different.
