Go gold or go home. Made from dazzling Maris Otter malt, our exceptional golden ale won’t disappoint. Part bitter, part sweet, 100% refreshing. Fearlessly brewed, this is a well-balanced, full-bodied golden beer with a subtle floral and herby aroma. A true Bristol sunset in a bottle, worth its weight in gold.

Amber color, decent off-white head, some lace. Flowery hoppy nose with some citrus, pineapple, iron and toffee. Light to medium bodied. Flavor has sweetish toffee notes, flowery and nutty hoppyness. Short hoppy aftertaste. Quite standard English bitter, wellbrewed but not very exciting.

Bottled. A hazy amber beer with a thin beige head. The aroma has notes of bread, caramel, and straw. The flavor has strong notes of elderflowers, as well as notes of malt, bread, and caramel, leading a very dry finish.Thanks yespr for sharing.

(bottle) Hazy, orange-golden colour with a short but dense eggshell-coloured foamy head. Citrus-fruity and zesty, slightly flowery hoppy aroma with a moderately sweet (cara-)malty background. Sweet-bitter flavour, light to medium body with a soft carbonation. Initially (cara-)malt-accented, minimal chalky taste with fruity and spicy hops with a lasting and well-rounded slightly biscuity malty and fruity hoppy finish. Good (09.VIII.09).

[500ml bottle from Dad - cheers!] Pours a slightly cloudy pale amber-orange with a moderate and lasting cream head. Very little carbonation. Fresh honey-sweet aroma with farmyard hints. Flavour is of sweet malt, straw, summer fruits (made me think of nectarines, rather unusually) with some slight notes of garden mint. A good earthy bitter finish. If I hadn’t have known otherwise in advance, I would have thought that this was cask ale - an impressive achievement for what appears to be a pasteurised bottle. A very good beer indeed - recommended.

Bottled@Monks Café, Stockholm. Pale orangeish amber colour with small white foamy head. Aroma is flowery and fruity hops. Flabvour is quite grassy with some wooden and caramelly notes. Rather mouthdrying, yet refreshing session beer.
