3.6 Bottle from the supermarket. Pours a clear gold with a very thin white head. Fruity, nice and light citrus with a floral hop. Mild syrup malt on the tasting with a nicely balanced leaf bitterness. It has a medium bodied softness countered with a crisp sparkle. It’s an incredibly refreshing and tasty blonde ale with a nice level of fruitiness for a traditional style.

3.5 Cask at the brewery, smallish creamy head, clear and just a touch pale yellow colour, light citrusy, candy aroma, apple and pineapple flavour with some flowers and a touch of yeastiness and a citrusy bitterness and a sourish note. Very nice and enjoyable.

3.1 Clear yellow, white lacing, lasting foam. Weak in aroma but great bitter taste. Great bitter aftertaste. (Edingburg 201806)

3.9 Bottle. Yellow quite unusual appearance. Hoppy aroma followed by a pleasant hoppy flavour with a slightly bitter finish. Quite light body. Above average and worth trying.

3.3 Tap. Pours clear golden, small white head, decent lacing. Aroma of malt, biscuit, grass, Noble hop, honey, light floral notes. Flavor is light sweet, light plus bitter. Light plus body. Tastes like a cask pour, although it was not on cask.

4.3 500ml bottle. Pours a slightly hazy straw/gold with a compact white head. Lots of carbonation. Nose is straw, grassy, honey, citrus, sweet bread and gooseberry. Silky smooth light mouthfeel. Subtle flavours of straw, honey, gooseberries, lovely grassy notes and some citrus zest. Nice bitter finish. Winner.

2.6 Easy enoughto drink just not keen on the after taste had at fynefest from keg

3.3 cask half-pint at The Euston Tap on 3rd Aug 2016. Pale golden pour, white head. Fruity with light citrus hints, hoppy and pleasant. Mild bitter finish: decent quaffing ale.

3.8 Tap at a bar in the royal mile in Edinburgh Pours bright orange hue with a nice soapy white head and sparse lacing. Nose is nice leafy hops dry pale malt husks. Floral notes are subtle but nice. Flavors of lite but firm grapefruit grassy malt and floral notes. Great little beer!. Long finish of lingering grapefruit dry cracker pale malt and leafy hops. Fantastic session beer.

3.3 ASPETTO: ambrato molto chiaro, limpido. Schiuma bianca, fine, abbondante e persistente. AROMA: intenso e gradevolissimo. Forte floreale, fruttato (soprattutto arancio), leggero erbaceo. GUSTO: all’attacco è inizialmente dolce, ma solo per un attimo, per poi far subito comparire un intenso amaro che continua nel lungo e intenso finale. Carbonizzazione medio/bassa, corpo leggero. Lascia la bocca molto secca, una birra quasi astringente. Meglio al naso che in bocca, in quanto si presenta decisamente monocorde.
