...and three years later, a new rating. Bottle, picked up somewhere in north Norfolk. Deep gold. Nothing really that you call a head. Nose has toffee. Sweet wort. Hint of dessert apple. Taste is significantly better than the aroma, and is punchy, pithy bitter, with a little toffee sweetness. Pretty flat and dull mouthfeel. Pithy bitterness to finish.

Hand-pulled pint in The White Horse, Upton (Norfolk) on 26th Oct 2013. As the name might suggest, this was golden in colour: the small white covering stayed around for a while before retreating into a wisp and collar formation. A little more Pale Malts than anything else in both the aroma and taste: semi-sweet with a mild citrus note in the background. No huge flavours but a pleasant enough blend, refreshing and gulp-able.

Deep golden color. Malty sweetness and apricots in the nose. Fairly sweet but not that interesting. Ok.
