Bottle courtesy of Baz, consumed at Eardisley, Herefordshire Friday 8th November 2013 Pours gold, good clarity. Initial impressions are sweet, fruity, not as hoppy as I would like however its very pleasant. Quite a good beer though I start to tire of it after a while. A6 A4 T7 P4 Ov13 3.4

Hazy darkish amber beer. Tidy pale cream coloured head. Palate is dry and a little crisp. Creamy dry malt. Nice orangey hops, whisper of lime. Minerals. Dry finish. Not bad but a bit too dry.

Cask-conditioned at the North Yorkshire beeriodical, the Seven Stars, Bristol 13/12/2012. Golden with a slight white head. Hoppy aroma, with some grapefruit, tangerine and a grassy edge. Flavour had plenty more tropical fruit and solid, balancing malts, before a dryish finish. Good.

Aroma: Earthy, musty candy sweetness and some citrus. I agree with BeerCast_Rich that there’s a pot pourri quality to it.

Appearance: Cloudy, golden body with a medium white head. Lively carbonation. Good lacing.

Taste: Light caramel with soft lemony notes. A little bit grassy and earthy. Lingering, bitter finish.

Palate: Thin to medium body with a slightly oily texture. Average carbonation.

Overall: An interesting hop combination that works pretty well. This is a decent golden ale.
