Can ordered from Malt Miller, Swindon. Aroma combines dough, light grains and a citrus edge. Opaque light gold. Foamy translucent white head soon thins out. Citrusy. Sour, if not overly so. Underlying bready maltiness. Metallic hints. Develops a sugary streak. Light-medium bodied. Slick. Average-fizzy carbonation. Long dry finish. Quite refreshing. Certainly not a trad Golden Ale, I guess what you get if a modern brewery has a go.

440ml Can - Golden with a slight haze and a foamy head. Floral hops, honey, hints of orange and some slightly earthy notes in the aroma. Typical golden ale taste, which is not a bad thing, with notes of honey, grain, floral hops and faint hints of marmalade. Not bad as far as nostalgic retro beers go! :)

Can ordered from the brewery. Aroma combines sweet fruit with sherbert and spice. Clear gold. Thick fluffy foamy white head. Malty. Fruit sweetness. Restrained candy. A vinous edge compliments rather than intrudes. Followed up by grainy bitterness. Light-medium bodied. Slick. Fizzy carbonation lazily bubbles away. Long gently warming finish. Really hits the spot on a cold Sunday evening.

Bottle ordered from the brewery. Aroma is funny and unsurprisingly vinous and fruity. A slightly odd looking hazy pink tinged gold. Very lively but head soon recedes. Heavy sour. As per the aroma it's funky and vinous. Grape warmth. Earthy. Tanin. Light-medium bodied. Slick. Average-fizzy carbonation. Long dry astringent finish. A sipper sour.

Can ordered from Twisted Crow, Basingstoke. Aroma has rich chocolate and sweet edged berries. Dark. Glossy. Foamy tan head dissipates in seconds. The flava comes in waves. Over the top there's bitter coffee and liquorice. Almost medicinal. A boozy bite. But there's also creamy chocolate. Sweet berries. Medium bodied. Oily. Average carbonation. Long somewhat astringent finish. Sweet yet warming but no Pastry.

Bottle at home in Hackney - picked up from Caps and Taps. Pours mostly clear honey-gold with a creamy, white head. Lightly sweet with notes of crispy grains, slight vanilla, white wine, mild lemony tang, very modest funk, subtle woody dryness. Light to medium bodied with fine, massaging carbonation. Mild sweetness in the finish, soft salty notes, light wheat, light funk, lemon peel, pale grain, background citric accents, light funk. Drinkable stuff. Not bad.
