330ml, bottle-conditioned seasonal beer released in Sept.08, picked up at Cornelius Beer and Wine in Edinburgh last November. Almost murky, amber body. Moderate level of off-white head. Smell of dry, sweet malts added a touch of tartness. Taste of herbal and sweet, nutty malts. Notes of acid bitterness to the ending. Unusual beer, without too much excitement (shared with Finn at a social gathering in Tromsø, 23.04.2009).

330ml bottle as Organic Goldeneye Pale Ale from Cornelius Beer & Wine in Edinburgh. A seasonal beer with a label that says 6.5% abv while the brewery’s website says 6.2% abv. Anyway, it’s a drink with an inviting aroma and a flavour that does not quite deliver. Cloudy, late-straw body with a dense, but low, white head. Fragrant aroma of plain hops, very promising. Soft hoppy flavour with bitter endnotes. Cool and pleasant impression, but nonetheless a bit anonymous in character (shared with Finn, Tromsø 23.04.2009).
