Gyllengul till bärnstensfärgad öl med vitt skum. Doft av säd, jäst och lättare malttoner. Lättare gräsig beska tillkommer i smaken.
An easy drinking ale, nothing to crazy. Kind of boring but smooth and easy to put back.
Tap @ the Camperdown hotel. Rubbish. Overly sweet. Yet another ordinary beer from James squires.
Bottle. Pours a golden color with a small white head. Has a fruity malty grainy weak hoppy aroma. Fruity malty grainy flavor with weak hoppy hints. Has a fruity malty grainy weak caramel hoppy finish.
Found notes from my 2009 trip to Australia. Good easy drinking beer. Light hops and barley. Golden color.
Bottle. Amber, low offwhite head. Light biscuit malt aroma. Medium light body, a bit flat. Balanced to boredom. Meh.
On tap at Charming Squire, Brisbane on 7th September 2015. Gold with off-white, lasting foam top and lacing. Fine citrus aroma. Grapefruit in-mouth with soapy touch. Citric, floral and slightly soapy finish. Zingy mouthfeel and light body. Pleasant.
Along with Yves at his home golden blond colored body with a white head and a citrus hop yeast aroma , a yeast herby citrus slightly bitter taste with a bitter finish
Shared with wim at my home. Clear goldblond colored beer with large diminishing white head and lots of carbonation. Hopped fruited aroma. Medium sparkling palate. Finish is sweet fruited slightly bitter.
On tap at Campus Club, Nathan. Amber with little head and a bit of ale yeast on the nose. Tasty and smooth drinking, suitable for mass consumption due to dryish finish.

Bottle (345ml). Clear golden colour with a small white head. Aroma is golden malts and light fruity hops. Taste is medium sweet with a low hop bitterness. Palate is oily and light-medium bodied. Quite quaffable.
345ml bottle. Pours clear amber with a small head that quickly disappears. Grassy spring nose. Fruity, citric taste, a bit sour even. Still watery in the mouthfeel though. And where is the hops that produced that beautiful aroma? Killed by overcarbonization I assume. What a shame...
mild ale. Some fruitiness from the yeast and hops, no malt character to lift it up. thin body. it’s okay. better macrobrew than most lager options.
Bottle 345ml. @ home.

Bottle @ First Official Randers Tasting. Pours clear amber with airy off-white head. Slightly dusty aroma with notes of yeast and malt and soe hoppy touches. Sour-sweetish flavour of grain, malt and hops. Sourish and dusty aftertaste. Not off but not very enjoyable, either.

345ml bottle into glass. Chalky hop nose. Golden beer with off white head. Thin carbonation. Spritzy, malty taste leading to smoky bitter finish. Nice.
Light amber coloured and clear. Has a white head. Mild sweet aroma, some hoppy notes. Flavor starts sweet, then moderate bitter. Creamy texture.
Poured a clear full amber with ok white head that diminished to soapy suds. Aroma light of sweet malt and some mild passionfruit. Flavours are initial sweet malt moving to dry stale hops. Palate thin but easy to drink with fine/dense carbonation, and surprisingly longer dry finish than was expecting. Refreshing on a hot day, a good entre beer.
Tap. Clear, orange, tan foam, light sweetness, lightly bitter, light body, thin feel, average carbonation, & bitter finish.
Aroma is light, simple. Enough carbonic acid gas, little, smoke, little woody. Good overall.
It wouldn’t be a bad ale, with citrus and pine needles on the flavour, but the aroma and taste of cashew apples is sickening. It kills what could have been a reasonable beer.
this is a re-rate. A little toasted malt and fruity aroma. Nice golden brown colour. Weak bubbling reducing quickly to nothing. Light mouthfeel, lacking around in flavour. Wouldnt bother with this one, unsatisfying.
Bottle. Amber white head. Nose is caramel, berry, mineral water. Flavour is pretty muted biscuit/caramel and British ale berry-ness. Nice carb bite, thick palate considering its description hints at lagerness. Alright.but quite muted, kind of papery despite having a 2015 expiry date.
From stubby poured to glass Ar: minimal aroma, a little bit of tropical but not a lot / Ap: Gold, clear, small white head with decent retention / T: Not very sweet, not very bitter, pleasant but simple? / P: light body, thin to oily texture, slightly carbonated, short bitter finish / O: Not a bad beer, better than 150 lashes, but not a great beer either. meh, drinkable.
