Bottle from Sainsburys. Golden coloured with medium white head. Aroma gives a bit of apple, maybe a bit of honey but is a bit musty. Taste is a bit bitter and a bit weird. Can get the apple bit and the mustiness in the taste but it is also a bit off. Medium carbonation, and feels quite nice in the mouth, but I just don't really like the taste much I'm afraid. --- Beer merged from original tick of Golden Seahawk on 09 Sep 2019 at 16:06 - Score: Appearance - 6 | Aroma - 6 | Flavor - 5 | Texture - 6 | Overall - 5.

Bottle from Beers of Europe. It's called Seahawk Gold. Appearance - golden with very low carbonation. Nose - a bit butterscotch straight away. Doh! Maybe some caramel and orange. Taste - caramel and honey. Could still be butterscotch though. Palate - close to medium bodied and generally cloying. Overall - not great, might be faulty.
