A naturally brilliant blend of malt and hop characters. Solid gold colour, remarkably aromatic. smooth body with hints of fresh citrus. Dry delicate hop flower finish. A drink that is both distinctive and long on refreshment.

Small offwhite head; deep yellow body. Fine floral hoppy aroma with a touch of sweetish malts and maybe a hint of smoke. Taste is deep, resiny floral hops, somewhat dry, with a soft dry aftertaste. Good, drinkable IPA. (0.5l bottle.)

500 ml bottle at Irish Pub in Sundsvall, Sweden. Clear golden color, big white head, Fresh hoppy scent, mix of a bit sweet malt. Initially very hoppy taste, but a bit weak after taste. Still it’s refreshing and a good summer ale. Medium to a bit thin mouthfeel. Medium high bitterness.

The cask edition of Deuchars is definite among my favorite british ales. So it came as a pleasant surprise to find the beer for the first time in my local pub, Blå Rock Cafe in Tromsø.The first thing you notice with the bottle version is that it is a bit stronger. 500ml bottle (bb.Jan.07). Very nice and informative label. .Poured a clear light golden colour with huge foam, slowly fading. Delicious floral aroma. Medium bodied. Very well balanced flavour with sweet malts and hops. Nice dry bitter ending. Enjoyed with a tuna salad called Waterboys. No deficiency except being served too cold (07.04.2006).

500 ml bottle, courtesy of Cardinal, Stavanger. Golden to amber colour, decent lasting head. Pleasant hoppy aroma with fruity notes (citrus, pineapple). Flavour is moderately hoppy and refreshing, grapefruity in the finish. Not quite as good as the the cask version, but even from a pasteurised bottle it is a pleasant session beer without any obvious flaws.

Bottle. Small head with short duration. Amber color. Good hoppy aroma. Taste is rich and hoppy but not too bitter. Just right.

Bottle: Light amber coloured with orangey tints, fluffy, lacing head; big peppery hoppiness in the aroma with citric fruit notes, some malty undertones; dry malty beginning; moderate bitter flavour; extremely lingering, bitter-aromatic finish; good balance of malt and hops. Superb, the real stuff !!!

(Bottle 50 cl) Orangey golden or pale amber - whatever you prefer. Almost no head. Lightly floral nose. Incredibly lovely flavours from the aroma hops, but not really overly hoppy. Actually the bitterness is rather subdued. Slightly sweetish, caramel-like notes. Very delicate and easy to drink. 160605
