Bottle from Bridgend Service Station. Murky amber body with a medium off-white head. Low carbonation. Good lacing. Aroma of autumn leaves, copper and digestive biscuit. Flavour of pear skin and cardboard with a sour finish. Thin to medium body with a frothy mouthfeel. Light fizz. A weird, musty beer.

Clear medium amber colour, tall fluffy off-white head, recedes rather quickly, good lacing. Aroma pale malts, orange, apricot, caramel, hint of candy. Smooth taste, medium sweet and bitter, malty, fruity, toffee, spicy notes. Dry bitter finish, bit dusty, medium body, oily texture, soft carbonation, well-executed, very nice.

355ml bottle. Minimally cloudy, orangey, dark golden to amber colour with average to huge, frothy, fairly lasting, minimally lacing, off-white head. Citrusy and piney, hoppy aroma with a herbal touch, notes of pine, resinous hints of green wood. Taste is dry hoppy, piney, woody and slightly citrusy, a resinous touch of young wood, lemon notes make themselves felt not until the finish, malty bais with a nuttily touch. Dry, almost tannic, not that aromatic.

Tap at New York Sports Bar in JFK. Struggled to get the plot on this one. Hazy yellow with full white head. Did not get any hops on this at all.

Bottle. Lots of garlic in this one. Seems like old hops, otherwise classic American pale ale. Not very enticing through lack of fine aromatics. Rough vegetables instead.

12 ounce bottle. Tawny amber orange color. Small white head. Sweet caramel malt nose. Toasted malt flavor balanced by complex citrus hops. Slightly bitter and spicy with notes of toasted nuts and subtle pine. Deliciously balanced.
