A brown 500ml bottle of ’Traditional Pilsner’ from a small independant English brewer? Best before the end of Nov 2008, two days away when opened. I poured the bottle two and a half times into one of my Veltins Pilsner glasses. Almost looks like a Pilsner, a slight haze but golden yellow. Not the normal carbonisation either, no bubbles rising up the body. The white head not as bright or full as a true Pilsner. However it still looks OK. An aroma which reminds you of lagers/pilsners but with added yeast, some hops and grapefruit hints. The taste is interesting, a mix of Pilsner and UK Pale Ale flavours. There is a citrus feel within the taste also, not a sour lemon or lime, but something is in there. There is a body and fullness to this beer, half Ale, half Pilsner. It seems to work, not sure how or why, but it does. I liked this hybrid beer and would have it again if we crossed paths.

Cask gravity at Wye Hops festival 2011. Pale gold thin white head. Actually a hoppy lager. Wouldnt have picked this as a cask lager I guess. Decent lemony citrus edge to the finish. Its a decent cask lager. Mind you doubt I would have it again.
