[i] [b] Bottle picked up at the Naked Grape, Alresford, Hampshire 07-06-08 [/i] [/b] Amber coloured with medium sized white head, good claritiy. This is quite an aromatic beer, perfumey hops dominate almost aggresively so but this never detracts, this transfers into the flavour as well with some nice sweetness and citrus in reserve making quite a bittersweet symphony, a good beer with plenty of verve

500ml bottle. Thanks to AndrewC for this one. Gold with thin beige head. Some hop on aroma, but quite poor in the mouth. Malt seems quite biscuity. Odd chemical aroma that goes into the mouth. Weird acidity too which lasts on the finish. Not great.

Cask gravity at Planet Thanet BF 2007. Hazy amber colour with no head. Plenty of English hops. Some fruity malt. Good fuggles hop throughout. Citrus and floral and aromatic. I rather like it, touch of ginger to the biscuity malt. Well made very English beer.

Bottled. Clear amber, minimal head. Strong hay aroma. Sweetish with soft caramelly malt and lots of hay-like Fuggles hops. Feels rich for 4.8% - almost massive. Lots of malt balances the hop contents perfectly. Medium bitterness.

Cask at GBBF 2006. Copper colour with bubbly beige head. Good floral hop and yeast aroma. OK bitter. Goodish hop on end. Some caramel. In fact I rather like the hop on this and a good start to the Thursday session.
