Fra flaske spandert av Rune. Delt med ham i WC-veien 24 Apr 17. Gylden. Høyt tett skum som daler sakte. God fruktaroma. Smaken balansert. Mye malt men også innslag av plommer & fersken. Bra øl.

Fra flaske spandert av Rune. Delt med ham i WC-veien 24 Apr 17. Gyldenbrun. Høyt tett skum som varer lenge. Litt lacing. Lett fruktaroma. Myk munnfølelse. Smaken lett krydret. Blir litt syrlig etter hvert.

(Cask at Harp, Charing Cross, London, 22 April 2017) Golden colour with frothy, white head. Fruity, hoppy nose with citrus, lemon peel, grass and floral hops. Malty, fruity taste with notes of citrus, grapefruit, peaches, soft malt, grass and a balanced citric bitterness. Light body, with a touch of sweetness. Fresh and tasty. Nice one.

500ml bottle. Clear, orangey golden colour with average to huge, frothy, slowly osteoporosing, minimally lacing, white head. Piney, hoppy aroma, hints of spruce, a touch of orange zest. Taste is bone dry, slightly piney and grassy, bitter hoppy, some spruce, a mineral touch. Stands clearly behind other excellent Crouch Vale Golden Ales.

Gravity cask at the Royal William, Stowmarket. Brown with only a touch of ruby. Flat and translucent. Light notes of chocolate malt and a touch of Robusta coffee. Taste is sweet with a good dash of bitter-sour fruity hop. Well-balanced for a mild. Long grainy finish with blackcurrant and Milo. Needs more body and more character but still engaging.

2016 catch up - Bottle at home - A nice easy drinking golden ale that was perfect as a pre-Sunday lunch pint and also as an early evening pint having put the kids to bed. A gentle flavour of malt and hops, a low abv and good thirst quenching mouth feel.

A 500ml bottle bought at Queens Head in Chelmsford and shared with Finn back home. A bright warm golden body. Stable white head. Spotty lacing. Modest aroma of floral hops. Well blended taste of leafy hops and restrained caramel malts. Rounded, drying bitter tail. Medium bodied. Classic British brew, nice and tasty (Tromsø 24.04.2017).
