Bottle 50 cl. Courtesy of fonefan. Pours a clear amber with a small off-white head. Aroma of nuts and skewed British hops. Medium-bodied, very caramellish and nutty. Some dry hoppiness in the finish. 130810

Bottle, thx to fonefan. A clear, golden beer, a small, off-white head on top. Malty nose with a good addition of hops. Buttery, bisctuiy malts, fruity, grassy hops. Buttery notes in the flavor too, else it’s biscuity with pleasant fruity hops, a bit low on bitterness I think. Medium body, fruity finish. A decent one, nothing special. 100813

500ml bottle from Sainsbury during the festival. Apparently one of the winners. So if I was making a case for this being better than the other 14 what would it be? Well it has a beautiful clear amber to pale chestnut colour with a lasting beige head. So that is pleasant to look at. Aroma of some malt and some hop which is not perfect at all. A bit bready I suppose. The flavour is a very mild bitter. And I mean a very mild bitter. Really a bit watery on the malts. Some then frisky hops on the end, not particularly flavoursome but spritzy mouthfeel. For me a bit of a boring bitter if impossible to find any real brewing fault. It’s just not very exciting. Or particularly what I would want in a bitter. The Wolf Whistle which I had before this blows it away if you pardon the pun. Ok, but not exciting. Drank it easily and relatively quickly so has a bit of drinkability, I can’t fault it, but it doesn’t make me want to buy another unlike the Wolf or Brew Dog beers. SilkTork’s final sentence on his rate makes perfect sense for this beer.

50cl bottle from Sainsburys. Gold with a thin white head; fruity malt aroma with some apricot and a touch of citrus; lemony, orangey, fruity flavour; the finish is slightly nutty but also has some rather stale hops. Pleasant enough, but unexciting.

Bottle from Sainsburys. Cooper coloured with a decent white head. Fruiy malt aroma with some orange hops. Flavour was a clashing mix of savoury malts and diacetyl butterscotch which, wasn’t enjoyable, before a moderately bitter finish.

Bottle from Sainsburys, Kidlington, Oxon, consumed in a field at Towersey Festival, Oxon, 29-08-09 Pours chestnut as the description states with a white head. There is some brambles on the nose and its also a bit woody. Malty in the mouth, but with some autumnal berries, rounded off by a meandering bitterness. This is a nice slightly rustic beer but pretty good stuff. A6 A4 F7 P3 Ov13 3.3
