A golden ale with a thin white head, big bubbled and frothy. In. aroma, biscuits and honey malt, a bit mineral. In mouth, very decent hoppiness for a blond ale, with light residual sugar, light citrus, medium bodied. Very run of the mill. Bought at Booze Bros, Reno, NV, August 2007.

50 cL bottle. Pours clear and golden orange with a lacing white head. Mild mouldy malt and light bitterhops aroma, vague citrusy note. Flavour is sweet and mild mouldy malt. Light fruity touch to it with a light bitterness into the finish.

bottle - Pours hazy dull gold with a very thin head and not much carbonation. Old bottle? I bought it very recently, but I couldn’t find a date on it, so who knows. The aroma is yeasty malt. The flavor is sweet malt that’s very recognizable as an English malt. It reminded me of a much lighter version of the strong cellar ready English ales like Thomas Hardy or JW Lees Harvest right down to the minimal carbonation. Of course this one isn’t as good either. The flatness (in both carbonation and flavor) and the almost cloying sweetness definitely didn’t do it for me. Very disappointing.

Clear golden color, creamy off-white head, lace. Papery malty nose. Papery, grassy, a bit toffeish flavor. Cheap hops in the finish.

500ml bottle. Golden coloured with a slight white head. This didn’t make much of an impact. A bit of malty aroma followed by some bitterness. Ok.
