Small to medium dirty-white head, fed by fine but lively pearling in metallic chromate-yellow beer. Faint ammonium smell upon opening, then dry sweet malts. Some fruity aromas indeed (fresh peach, lemon, honey,...) but as to hops... Grasping bitter flavour in the taste, the hops are there, now, superposed on distinct corn flakes. Quite metallic finish. Light body, well-carbonated - lively but not fizzy. Pinch of saltiness in the aftertaste. The difference experienced between nose and flavour proves an adagio I’ve long cherished: UK or EU aroma hops, as Goldings or Saaz, are actually unsuited to be used in very large quantities, as they get too easily metallic. If agreable bitterness AND aroma are needed, use USA C-hops or NZL ones. Txs to DeanS!

Bottle, picked up at Saltaire Wines, Saltaire, West Yorkshire 04-05-07. Poured a dark golden colour, good bitterness showing and quite a hoppy beer but otherwise lacking a little something.

Cask at The Six Bells St. Albans 27 Sep 06. Golden coloured. Hardly any head. Caramellish aroma & flavour. Dull. The beer was probably not at it’s best.
