Bottled@The Rake, thanks magicdave6. Hazy yellow colour, big fluffy white head. Aroma is harsh grains, earth, hops and quite bland. Flavour is quite medicinal, mildly grainy as well as some earthy and teasty notes. Mild fruityness as well.

Bottle at The Rake, Man Utd winning the Premier League May 2009. Possibly one of the worst beers I have smelt and tasted. Cloudy pale gold, thick white head. Possibly the worst chalky fruit beer I’ve had. Rancid pineapple, vegetal on aroma. Rotten veg. Quite comically bad.

Bottled as Robsons fruit beer mild pineapple. An unclear light yellow beer with a thin white head. The aroma is sweet with notes of pineapples as well as light wheaty notes. The flavor is sweet wheaty combined with notes of pineapples, leading to a very dry and wheaty finish.

34 cL bottle (as Robsons fruit beer mild pineapple 3.7%)@chris_o’s place, thanks Chris. Pours pale yellow with a lacing head. Fruity aroma with an underlying malt profile, a bit like a belgian blonde. Slight pineapple flavour with a minor sweet note. Ends slight prickling, fruity and slight malty.

Bottle, at RBESG 2007 in Glasgow, Grand Tasting. Very cloudy straw coloured beer. Nice fruity / citrussy and hoppy aroma and flavour, also notes of yeast and oak.

Bottled at RBESG ’07. Cloudy yellow. The fruit isn’t very evident. Some pineapple hides carefully under cracker malt, yeast and sulphur. Light bodied and surprisingly dry with low bitterness. Quite drinkable for a fruit ale. I appreciate the balance in the beer, but there is nothing here to really enjoy.
