Bottle from Quenchers, Bideford. It pours clear golden with a bubbly white head. The aroma is toasty grain, but bready, cereal, dusty and paper. The taste is dry, bitter, quite sweet actually, apple, pear, toasty grain, cereal, touch soapy with a dry, grainy finish. Lightish body, low carbonation and oily mouth - feel. A bit shit really and very far from "the ultimate pale ale" as advertised. Grainy and very meh.

0,5 flaske fra Gulating Stavanger, delt med Ovesen etter endt brygging: lett uklar lys gylden med flott skum som varer. Mild citrusaroma og -smak, ikke helt det jeg forbinder med en bitter, den minner mer om en slank og lett pale ale. Behaglieg, citruspreget bitterhet.

Bottle from the brewer's own stall at the Dartmouth Food Festival. Deep gold with a thin white head. Mild and slightly sour citrus flavour. Some leafy hops. Bready malts. A pretty dull and basic golden ale; I'm not sure why they feel they need the sexist claim that it's a real man's beer, or a skull and crossbones on the label. Both of these just annoy me and stop me wanting to try anything else from this uninspiring brewery ever again.

Tredje dag på slipp med Fridtjofen, flaske delt med skibsrederen mens vi venter på at arbeidslysten akal melde seg: rødlig rav med flott skum som varer. Frutkig bitteraroma og -smak med urter, nøtter, mørke fløtekarameller og jordaktige toner. Lekker bittersøt avslutning. Meget lettdrikkelig, så dette ble en god start på arbeidsdagen, og perfekt på soldekket.
