Keg at Maltings, York. It pours near black with a thick tan head. The nose is coffee, roasted malt, chocolate, earth and a touch of cabbage. The taste is rich roasted malt, coffee, earth, burnt notes, moderate bitterness and a touch of cocoa with a dry, bitter finish. Medium-full body and moderate carbonation. Flavoursome. A tasty stout indeed.

Aroma: Tangerine, apricot and passionfruit.

Appearance: Hazy golden body with a thin white head. Light carbonation. Good lacing.

Taste: Up front fruit flavours - nice passionfruit linger. Much more hoppy than it is malty.

Palate: Thin to medium boy with an oily mouthfeel. Soft carbonation fizz.

Overall: Very drinkable and moreish. A lovely, juicy American Pale Ale.

Aroma: Muted aroma or orange, lime and biscuit. Quite sweet.

Appearance: Hazy pale golden body with a medium white head that holds really well. Average carbonation. Nice lacing.

Taste: Leafy, green hops. Well balance of soft citrus and pale malt, although the flavours aren’t very well defined. Easy drinking and low bitterness.

Palate: Thin to medium body with an oily mouthfeel. Light carbonation fizz.

Overall: A decent low ABV Golden Ale but not very unique.
