Bottle. A clear, dark golden beer with a mid-sized off-white head. Malty and bready aroma with a fruity touch, quite nice, but actually rather boring. The flavor is much the same, bready and malty, with caramel sweetness and some fruity hops, finishing in the same way. Could use some more bitterness. Quite dry mouthfeel. I find the beer a bit on the bready side, sure drinkable, but a bit ordinary. (080823)

50cl bottle. Pours orange with a small head. Aroma is sweet of corn & bread. weak palate. Notes of caramel. Very inoffensive & boring!

Frothy bubbly head over an amber-golden body. Fresh summer smell of citrus and honey. Lightly caramel start giving way to a floral and rounded hoppy taste with bitter ending (shared with CinnamonGirl and Magne, Sommarøya 17.08.2007).

Golden to light amber color. The aroma is malty, ordinary, with some white sugar and the hop comes out with some effort. The mouthfeel is thin, and metallic too, with light malt flavor, a quite strong bitterness, lightly aromatic. The final is dry and long. Average.

Bottled. Copperish amber colour with medium white head. Skunkyness along with hops , berries and fruits in aroma. Flavour is plesantly berryish and hoppy. Almost like it would be very bitter, but balanced up with sugar. Still I liked it very much. hoppy and slightly earthy finish.

Bottled (BB 04/2008)
Clear amber color, small white head. Woody-toffeish hoppy, slightly fruity aroma. Quite typical Shepherd Neame’s pasteurised bitter: Kentish oaky hops, a bit sweet in the beginning then dry woody finish. Also fruity and ashy flavors. Almost like Master Brew or Bishops Finger but more watery. Fizzy mouthfeel in the aftertaste.

(50 cl bottle from Systembolaget) Clear copper color, fluffy white head. Sweet and also floral hoppy scent. Malty a bit buttery, also wood taste. Spritzy mouthfeel, low bitterness.

When poured the first impression is of a lively, caramel coloured beer, with a large cream head; there is a grassy, summery aroma, and the taste has a citrus bite, leading to a biscuity aftertaste. Brilliant.

Golden amber ale with a thick white head. Initial skunky aroma followed by a light caramel malt with light herbal hops. In mouth, a rather light malt with some decent grassy hops, sustained and pleasant, very British. A light bitter for summer. LCBO July 2006.
