Overly large foamy white head on a highly carbonated unclear pale golden coloured body. Minimal tobacco & light malt aroma. Medium bodied, foamy dull & lump on the back. Pale malt, tobacco, herbal & citrussy tastes. All a bit messed up.

Bottle from Sidmouth Wines, Sidmouth. Golden-amber with an extremely thin head. Quite fizzy and active in the palate, it’s a fruity ale in the main, with some toffee also available in its nose. It’s perhaps a little thin in its taste, but crisp, with a light easy-supping nature.v

March 2010: This bottled conditioned 500ml of beer was consummed 3 months before its BBD. Poured into a vase shaped pint glass. A haze took the shine of this pale amber/orange coloured ale, on top sat a pure white head, deep initially, losing depth at a steady rate. Not sure if I poured in any sediment, or the beer is supposed to have a haze? Hops provided the most smell coming from the glass, flowery, grassy and with a hint of citrus fruits. The taste more or less followed the smells, with an extra tangy feel, an almost ginger style hotness too. The alcohol at only 3.8% ABV doesn’t sound interesting to some BA’s, but this is a well produced, balanced British Bitter and well worth trying.
