English Pale malts coupled with Challenger and Goldings hops provide the bitterness and aroma. The result is a highly distinctive light, golden ale, with caramel aromas, a pleasing toffee apple flavour and a late bitterness.

Cask at the Jerusalem Tavern. A standard quaffable golden ale from these guys. Not the best finish or overall product. Prefer their organic ales. (10/10/17) Re-rated, same place, same conditon. Sweet appely finish. Pub floor ending. 2.8 to 3.1. (26/4/19). Re-rated, bottle, probably from Waitrose. Sweet aroma aroma. Clearish yet striking gold. A really good moreish golden flavour to it with the kind of bitter crunch that makes me really love this style. 3.1 to 3.4.

Bottle at sister-in law’s house. A generic golden beer, made a bit more interesting by the "St Peter’s bitterness" that is present in so many of their beers. It was refreshing and pleasant, but nothing spectacular.

Medium golden color that smells like wort fermenting at a brewery, which is nice, but this is pretty one-dimensional.

Quickly getting through thirds of beers I’ve been gifted and are taking up room. Bread and hay, some floral elements, dough. Bright gold, impressively so. Thin creamy white head. Some sweetness before it gets bitter. A hint of citrus. Malty base. Medium bodied. Slick. Soft carbonation. Long astringent finish. Fair enough. An OK gold.

Hazy golden, moderate off-white head. Stays. Thick lacing. Aroma: big biscuity malts, floral & spicy hops. Some butterscotch. Medium body. Semidry flavour with lots of malts and hops. Medium bitterness. Rather decent.

Cask at the Jerusalem Tavern on 22nd November 2016. Golden amber with shallow smooth white foam and full lacing. Toffee, caramel and spices in aroma. Bitter hops in-mouth rounded by warmly sweet caramel malts. Fruity finish with toffee and biscuit malt and a bitter note in the upper mouth. Medium-bodied with a zingy mouthfeel.

Kicsi gyorsan kis szigetekké és tartós fátyollá olvadó hab, élénk borostyán szín. Illata vaskosan malátás, citrusos, virágos felhangokkal. Nagy, malátás testtel indít, amit a csúcson kissé savanykás, gyümölcsös aromák és diszkrét, de határozott keserű követ, a lecsengéssel folyamatosan erősödve. Utóízére már szinte csak komló keserűje marad, de az jó sokáig kitart. Közepesen testes, könnyed, jól csúszó nedű.

500ml bottle into an ’Old Speckled Hen’ badged vase shaped pint glass at home on 17th March 2016. Lunchtime drink with some rustic brown bread and pate. Clear golden pour, weak and wispy white head, even with a robust pour. Mild aroma of hops, taste also hop centric with a bitter nature and I can see why the brewery claim it is ’similar in character to a full bodied Czech lager’. The malts came into their own as the beer warmed a little and it became a little sweeter. Refreshing, thirst quenching and an ideal beer for my little meal.
