From BA (Sept 2006): New bottle design, the label now has Demeter, the Godess of Spring and Fertility on it. Poured very nicely, good clean light amber colour with a solid white foaming head, which stayed for the whole pint. Floral, slight hoppy aroma, nothing heavy, but pleasant and almost sweet. The Maris Otter barley gives the whole beer a slightly sweetish flavour, which in my taste, gave it a weaker mouthfeel than I had hoped for. The beer is still very, very drinkable.

(Bottle) Clear copper, good head. Bready malt aroma. Light body. well carbonated. Flavour starts malty but has a disappointing thin sharp bitter finish. Ok, but not great.

Clear amber beer. Soft and smooth - nicely balanced smooth malt and very mild hop fruitiness. Fresh and enticing.

[500ml bottle shared with Dad - cheers!] Light amber, small white head, rather fizzy. Cardboardy malt and not a lot else. Dull and rather unpleasant.

Bottled (thanks the the craziest bartender around). Something between deep orangeish golden and amber colour, mediumsized creamy white head. Aroma is malts, some fruity and grassy hops as well as some grass and wood. Flavour is quite much the same, but the grassy and wooden notes are much stronger. almost non-existant carbonation, so either there has been a slight cap leak, or then it’s very mellowly carbonated.
