Ghost Ship is a ghostly pale ale which takes its inspiration from Adnams 600-year-old haunted pub, The Bell. Brewed with a selection of malts - Pale Ale, Rye Crystal and Cara. We use Citra, and a blend of other American hop varieties to create some great citrus flavours.

Fra cask på The Globe Moorgate: klar kobbergylden med fint skum som varer. Brød, urter, gress og furunål. Tørr, bitter og noe endimensjonal.

Copper with a tan head. A bit fruity, toasted malts, bright citrus. Medium bodied. Finish has a snap and lightly dry. Not bad.

Last one! Funny, I've had the Double Ghost Ship and the n/a version, but this is the first time trying the original.

Old rating - This time from a mini keg although I've had it in the bottle at home a few years back. Kegs were pretty poor way to store the ale compared to bottle conditioned.

Pint in my village local. A true English bitter with well balanced bitter hops and malt and all with a sensible abv.

Half cask at Piccadilly Tavern. Golden pour, creamy head, rings of lacing. Light citrusy aroma. Taste is fruity, grapefruit, zesty, no malts popping up at all had on cask here and bottle previously

Cask at The Nelson pre Ipswich v Sheffield Wednesday. Aroma is malty, hoppy, citrus with a touch of grass. Taste is good with citrus, malty bitterness. Nice.

Cask at The Marquis in Covent Garden. Amber orange pour. Creamy white head leaves stellar lacing. Bready, earthy malt nose. Flavor is smooth, malty and delicious. My first proper pint in London. Some spicy hops von backend.

Cask at the Trafalgar, Greenwich. A hoppy ale that was surprisingly dark for the taste. Easy guzzling despite clash of Malts and fruits. Need to rerate.
