Bottled (from Beers Of Europe). Orangeish golden colour, small slightly off-white head. Aroma is fruity, some mild sweet malts, grains and some slight acidic berries (acidic not in a bad way). Flavour is bready, sweet malty, some slight floral and sweetish fruity/berryish notes with mild bitterness at the same time. Nice fruity/floral/berryish bitterness in the finish.

Hazy gold beer. Light nose of sweet malt and orange. Semi crisp palate. Moderate carbonation. Lagerish malt but a really nice light orange and citrus from the hops. Easy drinking refreshing beer.

Bottle, thx to fonefan. It is a clear, orange-golden beer with a thin lid of off-white bubbles on top. Citrusy and malty aroma with butterscotch. Citrusy on the palate, medium body and flavors of butterscotch. Some bitterness in the finish. A decent citrusy beer, but I would prefer the butterscotch to be removed. Drinkable though. (080822)

50 cL bottle. Pours almost clear yellow with no head. Mild citrusy and hoppy aroma. Flavour is mild mild cornish and light citrusy hoppy with a delicate bitterness. Lingering light citrusy finish. Light golding note too.

500ml bottle. Golden beer, lasting thin off white hea.d Nutty. Some earthiness. Very over carbonated. Very harsh. Don’t know what to say. The bubbles make it metallic and hard to drink, the earthy nutty aroma, also doesn’t endear. Stewed rhubarb flavour. Odd aroma. Not off, just not pleasant.

500ml bottle from Waitrose. Deep copper colour with a thin yellowish head - doesn’t really look like a golden ale; caramel aroma with some floral touches; rather thin and austere in the mouth with more caramel and a dry finish. Uninspiring.
