ABV: 4.6% IBU: - Ticks: 8
A pale golden beer with lots of hop character. A significant maltiness supports the intense hop character produced by adding Styrian Goldings throughout the brewing process.

Bottle from Appellation Wines. Appearance - a beautiful amber colour with a thin but nicely laced head. Nose - pale malt, meadow flowers and custard. Taste - creamy citrus, a bit like the lemon bit of lemon meringue pie. Palate - light to medium bodied with a creamy texture and a long dry finish. Overall - a good example of the Golden Ale style.

Bottle at home. It pours lightly hazy golden with a small white head. The nose is earthy, grainy, spice, dough and cake. The taste is crisp, bitter, spicy, grain, grass, pepper, citrus peel, hay and resin with a dry finish. Medium body and fine carbonation. Tastes pretty alright actually. Interesting spicy golden.

Bottle from The Beerhive. Hazy golden body with a thin white head that quickly fades. Steady carbonation. No lacing. Mild aroma of earth, raw parsnip and orange. Flavour of grass, yeast and lemon and lime sherbet. Medium body with an oily texture. Weak fizz. A simple, tasty Pale Ale.

Bottled shared at home - Cheers Steven! Pours a lovely pale amber with white head. Some butter on the nose which seems characteristic of Luckie’s ales. Floral notes, good bitterness and finish. Slightly sherbety, but all in all a good pale ale.

Bottle from BeerHive, Edinburgh [080213]
Dull orange amber, very hazy, big frothy white head, slight lacing.
Aroma of soft orange citrus, some yeast, touch of wet hay and some spicy hop, bit of apricot.
Taste of soft mellow fruits, dull orange, soft apricot, dab of damp hay, light sweet fruity malts with some spicy bit peppery hop. Can certainly taste the Stryian Goldings as Timmy Taylor Landlord uses the same hop - there is a bit of the taste of Landlord in this.
Palate - Soft carb, light to medium body, soft mouthfeel, light sweet palate. Finish as main flavour with a bit dry, light bitter spicy tail
Overall - Didn’t expect it to taste as it did - not your usual pale ale. Tastes rather better than the aroma. I like beers that do things different from the norm.
