@ Salamander, Bath. Dull tan colour. Smells of ginger mixed with diacetyl. Heavy ginger taste, light caramel backdrop. This out to be cleaned up in order for the refreshing qualities of the ginger to show through - too much diacetyl but that seems to

Hazy honeyish colour. The aroma is honeyish and slightly earthy, with a very fresh cracked malt character. The flavour is very earthy with shiitake and honey notes, getting almost burnt late. Dryish finish is fairly appetizing.

Bottled from Sainsbury’s. Yellow / straw colour and pours to give a short-lived head. Aroma is grassy with a bit of caramel. This is beer is pretty highly carbonated for an english blonde, which makes it lively on the palate. The big thing that lets this beer down is the after taste. It is very bitter and grassy. Not for me I’m afraid

Bottled. A brown beer with a beige head. The aroma has notes of malt, caramel, bread, and fruit. The flavor is sweet with notes of malt, caramel, and bread, leading to a dry and lightly phenolic finish. Thanks yespr for sharing.
