Greene King Yardbird (Bottle / Keg)

Greene King Yardbird (Bottle / Keg)

Bottle & Keg: Filtered

Inspired by bold American IPAs and named after the American jazz legend Charlie ‘Bird’ Parker. Full of hops with a lasting fruity flavour. Masses of hop. Tettnang and Willamette give tropical fruit, mango and floral notes with some spicy character. Cascade adds fresh pink grapefruit and Challenger and Pilgrim provide the underlying herbal hop with a touch of orange peel.

3.0 Bière 33 cl trouvée au comptoir irlandais. Couleur dorée transparente qui rappelle un cidre. Nez sur le grain, légère, rappelle aussi un peu un cidre. En bouche, des céréales, très légère, pas mauvaise, sans plus. Bonne bière de soif.
2.8 Ok pale ale... nothing special but not bad either
3.5 pale ale with a stronger after taste. Not bad but not my favourite
2.8 Light / amber beer. On the nose malt and hints of tropical fruit. In the mouth it is bitter with tropical fruit Birra chiara/ambrata. Al naso malto e sentori di frutta tropicale. In bocca risulta amaraognola con frutta tropicale
3.0 Ar: malt Ap: yellow, minimal head T: med bitterness, dry finish P: lovey carbonation
2.8 Correctly categorised as a golden ale here on Ratebeer - and not just due to the colour (mich lighter than an English pale ale). The nose is almost lager-like, though there's a nice (and unexpected) dose of bitterness on the tongue. Overall, this one is okay for a golden ale... but somewhat boring if you take labelled designation seriously.
3.0 Robe or sombre, limpide, mousse et carbo très faibles. Nez léger, pointe fruitée. Bouche marquée sur le grain en attaque, suivi d'un peu de fruits exotiques, avec une jolie rondeur briochée, et enfin une très légère amertume en finale. Pas ultra aromatique, mais agréable à boire.
2.9 Bottle from Asda. Amber in colour, with a slight, off-white, head and moderate carbonation. Caramel and sweet malts, a touch of citrus character and gently bitter finish. Ok.
3.0 Ei kuivuutta, siirappia.
3.5 Bottle. Clearly amber, offwhite lace. Aroma is very earthy, much more than expected. Juicy and honeyish, herbal honey notes, spicy herbal finish. Medium light chewy body. Earthy hop and citrus finish.
3.2 Bottle. Clear golden color with white head. Aroma is buttery, grapefruit, earthy hops, some juicy fruits. Taste is buttery, toffee, butterscotch, earthy hops, some more juicy fruits. Oily mouthfeel with fizzy-ish carbonation. Fun.
3.2 Aroma 7. Appearance 4. Taste 6. Palate 2. Overall 13. Orange and malt aroma. Taste is fruity, with some hop and spices. Short aftertaste. An easily drinkable and thirst-quenching beer.

2.5 Bottle, 330 ml. Typical British ale, smooth on the nose and on the palate, typic British smell on the nose, wet brown bread, creamy aftertaste, a perfect way how u can close the night. Easy and smooth, with a medium aftertaste.
2.9 Tap at The Westbourne, Notting Hill area. Fruity with subtle caramel. Clear chestnut body and a small white head. Hoppy taste with fruit, some honey notes and caramel. OK.
2.8 500ml bottle. Pours dark orange with a large head. Aroma is toffee and soapy citrus. Taste has soapy citrus and toffee throughout with skunky hops.
3.4 Butelka 500ml. Złoty kolor. Piana niezbyt obfita, biała,opada szybko do pierścienia. Aromat dużo rekompensuje...wyraźne chmiele,cytrusy,trawa,trochę ziół i lekkie żywiczne akcenty. Lekko oleista tekstura o małym wysyceniu.W smaku wytrawne,chmielowe z ziolowo-trawiastym zacięciem w tle cytrusy, karmel,owoce pestkowe?. Niezle
2.6 330ml bottle Deep copper, low carbonation. Very thin white head, almost no carbonation. Aromas of lime, pine needles and lemongrass. Slightly sweet malts, apricot and grapes. Sharp bitter finish. Wholly unremarkable.
3.1 A fruity smell of grapefruit, citrus, some grass. The head is frothy, white and medium large, the duration is normal. The body is dark yellow. A quite bitter start, metallic, some hops. The body is rather light, very dry with a lively carbonation.
2.8 Cayman Island liquor store Jacque Scott, O believe: pours gold with white head. Aroma is lemon and malt. Probably a bit older than it should be, but within the best before. Taste is sort of malty with a low bitterness... herbs and stuff as well. Meh. Not getting too much mango or spice as the commercial description implies.
2.4 Boring malt, mild hoppy notes. Taste is same. Bitter with some sweetness. Thin body, soft carbonation.
3.1 33cl bottle from Tosano. Light amber color, clear, fizzy, thick persistent white head, lots of lacing. A bit of funky smell. Aroma light orangey with ginger, a fruity note, light burned malts and quite a lot of grassy hops, hay. Taste flattish, mineral, mild bitter finish. Thin body, watery texture, clean finish, mineral aftertaste with grass.
3.0 0,33l Flasche. Orange-gelb. Dünner Schaum. Buttrigwe Rotweinduft. Holz. Butter auch im Antrunk. Dazu Barrique. Als Pale Ale seltsam. Was macht der Engländer da?
3.2 A: Dark Amber with a small white head N: Sweet caramel T: Quite bitter. Some caramel. P: Medium O: Decent effort
2.8 achat vente-privée.com - Commentaire à réévaluer après une nouvelle dégustation
2.8 Zitrusaromen, starke Bitternote, etwas muffig. Klar, bernsteinfarben. Kaum Schaum. Geschmack sehr bitterbetont, etwas unangenehm im Abgabg. Muffig.
2.9 330ml bottle. Pours clear pale gold with just a few bubbles. Aroma is traditional malts, with, to be fair, a reasonable amount of hop giving citrus and grassy flavours. Taste is in balance but is a bit musty. Not really appealing to me but is not too bad.
2.8 Small frothy offwhite head. Fair lacing. Mostly diminishing. Clear thin dark-yellow body. Aroma: moderate hoppy, herbs, grass. Initial flavor: light sweet bitter. Final flavor: moderate bitter; average duration. Palate: light medium body, watery texture, lively carbonation and metallic finish. dulçor maltado permeado por amargor lupulado herbáceo, bem na media. 30 s
