Bottle, courtesy of fonefan. Almost clear this one, pale amber in color and with an off-white head. Caramel malty nose with a bready touch and some fruity hop notes. The flavor is much the same, a bit more exciting though, but with a sort of flat feeling in the mouth, even though there’s some carbonation. Medium body fullness. A boring one, guess I’d be pretty fed up after a few of these. 110319

(bottle) Hazy, light-amber colour with a short and slightly off-white foamy head. Lemony fruity and slightly zesty hoppy aroma with a mildly sweet malty background. Slightly sweet and sour flavour, light to medium bodied with a calm carbonation. Mildly malty taste with citrus-/lemon-fruity hops; slightly sour and fruity hoppy finish with early stages of infection. Nevertheless still pleasant. 15.XII.10

Bottle: Hazy, deep golden, lacy small white head; zesty aromas and lemony hops in the nose; sweet-bitter flavour with a light acidity, medium bodied; unfortunately is a light acidity detectable in the hopy-malty finish. All in all still drinkable, spicy IPA....

Cas;, Newcastle Ams, Newcastle Upon Tyne. Golden with a thin white head. Fragrant hop aroma. Decent malt hop balance in the flavour with citrus notes and a dry bitter finish. Pretty good.

Cask gravity at Battersea BF 08. It said Coverdale Poacher IPA, but the ABV is the same. Gold, looks like a lger. Thin ivory head. Grassy hop aroma, some butter. It’s alright, some tea, some astringency. Decent grassy hop, but would expect more.

[Cask at GBBF 2005] A hazy orange beer with a thin white head. The aroma is sweet and floraly hoppy - while the flavor is sweet floral, and the hops primarily makes their presence known in the dry bitter end.
