Award winning Mad Goose is a zesty pale ale with a refreshing citrus finish, inspired by our own fearsome feathered friend. Her hiss was far worse than her bite except around mating season when it was best to stay inside for another well earnt beer.

Cask at the one crown . Hazy Orange. Persistent white creamy head. Think I got the dregs of the cask. Meaty mouth feel. Vague citrus and caramel bready

Cask at the Merchants Inn, Rugby, 03/04/13. Very lightly hazed golden with a good sized off white head that retains well. Nose is pale malt, light citrus, touch of hops, grass. Taste follows the nose pretty much to a tee. Medium bodied, soft carbonation, smooth and pleasant on the palate. Ok drinkable beer, looks and feels better than the flavours in the middle!

An amber beer with a thick head. A slight zesty aroma and the flavour is similar but slightly sweeter than I expected from the smell. It’s not particularly strong-tasting but it’s quite refreshing anyway.

Cask at the Bulls Head, Barston, Solihull. Clear amber pour with a big frothy head, typical of an English bitter. The hops are very evident in the aroma which isn’t overpowering. For me, this beer is as close as you can get to the perfect English pint. The bitterness is refreshing, smooth and well handled. It sits nicely on the palate just to remind you it’s still there for just the right period of time. At 4.7% it’s the right ABV to qualify as a great session ale and good for hot summer days or cold winter nights. It’s well-kept ales like this that make me miss my homeland more than is good for me and hastens my eventual return. I only wished that Purity would expand their small range of excellent ales.

On tap @ the Haymarket. Pours golden with a slight haze and a nicely proportioned head. The nose has grapefruit and pine. The taste is just wall to wall grapefruit. The palate is medium bodied and creamily textured with a tangy fresh finish. Overall, the grapefruit aspect is a little one-dimensional but it’s well executed.

Cask at Wellington, Birmingham, 4.2% ABV
Light amber color, creamy head. Light aroma. The flavor has some light malt, and light bread trace; light caramel too makes it just a bit better than other simplistic Ales; it has a light British fruitiness too; the final is just too bitter, with light metallic note.
Not bad, but a bit rough.
