Bottle shared at chriso’s pre-GBBF shindig 2013 - London. Pours perfectly clear gold with a foamy white head. Doughy bread on the nose. Light-medium sweet flavor with more doughy, pale bread, light vegetable notes, faint bittering hay. Light in body with fine to average carbonation. Simple finish with more doughy bread and hay. Meh, drinkable.

April 2010: I wrote this. Thwaites seem to be producing more and more bottled beers, I am sure some are almost identical, but with slight changes and a diferent name: Clear 500ml bottle, best before 7th June 2010, drank and reviewed 25th April 2010. Poured into a Batemans badged pint sleeve. I knew the beer was going to be a pale golden colour (clear glass bottle, remember?). On top was an off-white head, heavy at first but soon thin and a collar.It is claimed to be ’light and refreshing’ and it is, both in the smell and taste, body wise too. A mixed aroma of hop and biscuity malts slowly leave the glass as you sniff the smells, nothing overly powerful, but enough to let you know this is an ale and not a lager. Fairly ’fizzy’, so well carbonated with the alcohol sitting well back behind the flavours which re-confirmed the smells, namely a good blend of hop and biscuity malt tastes. I like the beers from Thwaites, even if they are sometimes a bit ’same-ish’, always good value, which is a quality I look for when buying bottled beers.

Bottle from Threshers.Very lively pour, with a massive white head. Golden in colour. Sweetish, lagery malt aroma with a touch of grassy hop. Sweet apricot and honey flavour, with some citrus hops and lightly dry finish. Ok.

500ml bottle from Threshers, Hythe, Kent. Golden with a ring of scummy cream head; strongly malt aroma; citrussy malt taste, slightly stewed but surprisingly full-bodied; with a bitter citric finish.
