Bottle shared with Johan at his place to accompany a great meal of smoked sheep head 12.08.25. Clear golden. Refreshing aroma and taste of pale malt, pilsner malt, succade and refreshing hops. Very quaffable.

500ml bottle. Poured a crystal clear yellow golden colour with a lasting frothy white head and lots of champagne bubbles. The aroma is malt, light woody hops. The flavour is moderate bitter, with a crisp, malt, light citrus, floral, woody hop bitter palate. Medium bodied with average carbonation.

50 cl. bottle @ home, bought @ Lidl Culemborg. Hazy golden with a white head. Malty aroma with some citrus and flowery hops. Sweet taste with a low bitter finish. Pretty solid English APA.

5 oz draft. Very weak aroma of floral-ish hints. Flavor is not great. Mild floral and ends on a cooked vegetable note. I don’t know any craft beer drinkers that are buying Shipyard anymore. I’m not sure how this brewery staying afloat.
