Bottled@AIH66 Beer Session (from K Citymarket Rovaniemi). Amber colour, small slightly off-white head. Aroma is floral, wooden, earthy and some slight sulphury and quite "hard watery" (kind of Marstonlike hard water). Flavour is hard water, grass, herbs and some slight bitter floral notes. Quite long lingering bitterness in the finish.

500ml bottle from K-Citymarket Ruoholahti. BBE 11/2017. Pours clear dark golden orange with a small head. Aroma of grass, hay, citrus, hints of tropical fruits and biscuity maltiness. Taste is crisp, grainy and slightly caramely with some citrus, fruits, hints of herbal notes and earthiness. Finish is crisp, biscuity malty and slightly caramely with some grass, citrus and fruits. Quite crisp English pale ale with an interesting hop profile.

50cl bottle from K Citymarket, Vantaa. Poured deep golden color with a thick white head. Toffeeish, creamy, hoppy, nutty aroma. Nice. Bitter, toffee, fudgy nutty notes in flavor, grassy bitter finish. Excellent stuff. Nice body and drinkability. Good one indeed.

Bottle shared during Scopey’s 5K tasting - Croydon, London. Cheers! Pours clear gold with a creamy white head. The nose holds citrus, orange rind, light hay. Light sweet flavor with rindy citrus bitterness, more hay, pale bread. Light bodied with average carbonation. Dry on the finish, with still further rindy bitterness, moderate sweetness. Not bad.

Cask at Craft Beer Co, Clerkenwell on 28th April 2015. Orangey amber with thin off-white foam and spot lace. Fruity, hoppy aroma with grapefruit and tangerine. Sweet berry fruits, tangerine, lemon and grapefruit in-mouth forming a rich blend. A savoury/nutty touch, and lemon tingle on the tongue. Bitterness and malts dominate a long finish. Zingy mouthfeel and lightish body for strength. A great pale ale.
