Bottle @ home. Hazy yellow-golden color, huge very active white head. Aroma is very fruity, citrus, lots of hops, very fresh. Taste lightly malts, nice hoppyness, crisp, bitter and grassy. Medium body, medium carbonation. Very nicely done! I’d love to have this regularly available where I live. Only 3.8% ABV!

Bottled, 5.2% ABV Gyle 2 bottled 15/07/13, large sample. Pitch black color, short brown head. Aroma of roasted malts, coffee, chocolate, loads of dark bread, hint of lactose, blackcurrant, earthy hops, bit fruity. Taste is mostly bitter and slight sourish, mostly from the dark malts. Finishes a bit dry. Lots of flavor, bit harsh on the malts, but balanced out nice actually. Wonderful stuff for such low ABV.

RE-RATE. 330ml bottle from Chez Sophie, Shrewsbury. Big tropical fruit & lime aroma, fruity taste with grapefruit, lime & mango. Good balanced, tasty, spot-on APA. 330ml bottle from Borough Wines, Stoke Newington. Has a rather inviting smell that’s hard to describe. Quite mellow tastes of tangerine and lemon with a slight bitterness coming into view. Not exactly mindblowing.

Cloudy gold beer, big white head. Palate is light and crisp. Sharp minerals. Fresh herbs go well with minerally crispness. Trace of sweet citrus. Interesting beer. This has been improved upon from a recent tap taste at the Cock Tavern. Cleaner and with a touch of mint. Overall a decent herb beer.

Hazy gold beer with a tidy white head. Palate is soft but with prickly carbonation. Minerals. Slightly dry pale malt, a little powdery. Okay hops - mellow grapefruit and orange. Light dry grass. Dry finish. Too dry. Mild bitter linger. (This was an early version. Later versions much better and I’ll get to them in due course.)

Bottle at home in London with Lyoli. Pours lightly hazy gold with a lasting, creamy white head. The aroma has plenty of wheat, some yeast, fruits, berries, citrus, pineapple. Light to medium sweet flavor with more pineapple, yeasty wheat bread, melon. Light bodied with average, creamy carbonation. Moderately sweet finish, lots of tropical fruits, hay, orange merengue, pinapple, melon. Very tasty stuff though pretty far from a typical hefe.
