500ml bottle enjoyed at home on a Friday eve. Dark, tan body colour under a creamy, off-white head, some of it remaining all the way. Fresh hoppy aroma with a light, sweet malty impact. Hoppy softness in flavour with hints of caramel malt. Smooth bitterness in the finish. Some crispiness in the palate that prevents the beer from getting a higher score (05.10.2007).

(Cask at Dartmouth Arms, Dartmouth Park, London, 6 Aug 2007) Golden amber colour with brief head. Fruity nose with notes of mandarin, lemon, citrussy hops and something slightly sourish. Fruity taste with mandarin, apricots, hints of sulphur, grassy and citrussy hops in the finish. Slightly too sweet for me. Drinkable, but no favourite.

[i] Cask, gravity at The Rock of Gibraltar Beer Festival, Enslow, Oxon, 01-09-07 [/i] Golden with some haze, served a bit too warm in my opinion, beers were served inside the pub on racks with no effort to keep cool. malt on the aroma and some honey. Tasted fine if bit warm and sweeter than anticipated, some fruit. A friend was convinced that this had aroma of baked beans?? Only ok I’m afraid.

12 oz. bottle, enjoyed at Boozefish in Kansas City, MO. Pour is cloudy brown with a big, rocky, off brown head. Aroma is malt, fruit and hint of hops. Taste is very fruity and complex. Lost of malt, not much hop in the taste. Nice beer.
