Bottle shared thanks to Colin. Hazed golden light orange coloured pour. with a lasting white fine head. Aroma is odd, berry, vinegar. Light beg, hop, flavour is light tangy, apple, faint infection. Biscuits , tart berry. Palate is airy carbonation, tart finish. Not good.

Bottle that I split at GBBF ’15, day 3, 13/08/15. Lightly hazed golden blonde with a moderate off white cap. Nose is light citric rinds, pissy tones, straw, light fart, tarte edge ... infected. Taste comprises on the turn melon, bread, straw, damp hay, citric leanings. Medium bodied, moderate carbonation, semi drying close. So so, drinkable (just) but carrying an infection.

Bottle split during the midnight hot tub tasting, thanks to 47574, 22/04/15. Clear golden with a decent off white head. Nose is orange peel, melon, straw, lemon rind. Taste comprises tangy citrics, light bread dough, straw, mandarin, tangerine. Medium bodied, fine carbonation, semi drying close with a tickle of hop bitterness. Ok GB.

Bottle from the Ship Inn. Appearance - golden amber with a thin head that disappears very quickly. Gentle but steady carbonation. Nose - honey and cornflakes. Taste - more of the sweetened breakfast cereal. A little orange kick at the end. Palate - light to medium bodied with a creamy texture and a fairly fresh finish, but truthfully for a lager style, and particularly a pils, this needs more hop bitterness. Overall - I’ve loaded this beer as a Pils but in reality this is closer to a Helles as bitterness is not at Pils level.

Bottle from the Ship Inn. Appearance - golden amber with not much head. Nose - oranges and cereal. Taste - marmalade on toast. Palate - light to medium bodied with a creamy texture and a long dry finish. Overall - it’s tasty. That said, all the bottled beers I’ve tasted from this brewery have a similar malt and hop profile. It’s a great recipe but makes me wonder if they have another good recipe.

Bottle from the Ship Inn. Appearance - amber to copper with a thin head. Nose - big orange and bread notes. Marmalade on toast. Taste - lovely roasty toasty hit followed by the oranges or even apricots again. Palate - despite the low ABV this is near as dammit medium bodied with a nice crunchy texture and a long dry finish. It’s got the structure of an ESB at the strength of a regular bitter. Overall - really well integrated hops and malt. Lovely little beer.
