500 ml clear bottle, courtesy of Cardinal Pub & Bar, Stavanger. Golden colour, moderate head. Very nice hoppy aroma, notes of blackcurrants and tropical fruits. The flavour is fruity and hoppy throughout, notes of marmalade and grapefruit. Very refreshing and drinkable.

Pale copper brown color, good creamy white head. Honey sweetish aroma. As expected: very light palate. Light sweetish citric notes and nice crispy lemony aftertaste. Leaves a soapy mouthfeel. Easy to drink, but a bit too light for my taste.

Bottle, picked up at Millets Farm shop near Abingdon, Oxon, a week or so ago. Pours a ruby colour, quite tasty some nice fruitiness and malt with maybe just a touch of a hoppy note in the aroma, much better than the Gold I had last week.

Cask gravity at Reading BF 2007. Some diacetyl. Bit of brazil nut maybe. Not wonderful, the walnut is pretty good if unintended. Light roastiness.
