500ml bottle: best before Mar 2013, poured into a UK pint sleeve @ home on a cold and windy Sunday afternoon (9th Dec 2012). Looked fine: clear and bright amber with a full, uneven, cream head on top. Lacing on the glass as the beer level fell. The nose was of freshly baked biscuits with a bucket load of floral hop notes thrown in for good measure. Those smells got stronger as the beer warmed in the glass. Crisp and malty feel in the mouth: bitter, yet with a malt content that tries to give a sweeter taste to the hoppy bitterness. Nicely balanced brew and a great example of how to get flavours into a beer without having to up the alcohol count or add some strange un-needed ingrediants as so many brewers now seem to do. I’m getting more and more impressed with Moorhouse’s beers: I’ll be looking out for others in their range as well as re-visiting the ones I’ve already had.

Fra cask på Charlie’s Bar i København: a decent session bitter. Noe kjrks i ettersmaken. Bør kanskje prøves igjen?

Pours a clear amber with a frothy, yellow-tinged head. A hoppy, bitter flavour that’s quite fresh and leaves a carbonated sort of aftertaste.

500ml bottle - a metallic nose, bit hoppy. Amber body, solid white head, looks excellent. A bitter citrus taste, thin body, a mixed bag really.
