I got this beer in a package from beer hawk, I originally thought it was American but on reading the can I learnt it's a Yorkshire brewery, I liked the list of ingredients.. SOFT YORKSHIRE WATER, malted barley, wheat, hops and yeast. 4.3 vol. A refreshing pale ale. I would buy it again
Bollicine piccole e numerose. Bassa amarezza. Colore chiaro ambrato. Leggermente tostata. Fresca.
Cask-conditioned at the Rook and Gaskill, York 17/12/2018. Deep gold in colour, with a slight, white, head. Ripe malts, some sweetish citrus character, leading to a moderately dry finish. Good.
0,5l from cask @ Angleterre. Pours clear golden with a low head. Aroma is slightly fruity malts. Flavor is sweet slightly fruity malts with some hops. Good balance.
Easy quaffing. Pale light tropical flavours some bitter hop in the finish grreat for a sunny day
I personally think that this is quite possibly the best pint of beer you can get.
With its full hoppy flavour and moderate ABV this makes this beer a top session tipple.
I loved it so much that I actually moved my family to be closer to where it is born, in the good ole town of Knaresborough ( pronounced Ken- nars-ber-rurg).
From a beer hawk mystery case. Pours golden. Thin head. Malt aroma. Malt and mild hop taste. Banana , citrus, sweetish ale.
Can from Greenslopes Cellars 3 March 2018. Another brewery that I haven’t had a beer from before. Okay without being great. Slightly fruity flavour and a musky earthy aroma. Looks okay, a little pale though.
BB 21/07/18. Poured a clear golden with a one- to two-finger bright white frothy head that retained well before diminishing slowly to a blotchy cap that laced OK. Carbonation low to moderate, average, and medium to coarse. Aroma slightly of sweet tropical fruits and malt with hints of citrus (lemon, grapefruit); not a lot of typical pale ale hops. Taste softly of citrus/lemon and malt with hints of slightly sweet tropical fruits; low bitterness and a bit of tartness; not as tasty as expecting. Light body. Smooth, slightly dry, slightly tart and a bit of a thin mouthfeel. The can says "pale ale", the style here says "golden/blonde" - not a pale ale as I understand it - more like a slightly hopped golden/blonde.
Can. Very pale gold with a white head. Aroma of Meyer lemons, tropical fruit, hay and biscuit. Light bodied verging on watery. Lowish carbonation. Clean with hay and grass, tropical and citrus fruit. Pretty dry and moderately bitter at the end Refreshing but a little watery.
330mL can from Bucket Boys. BB 18/07/18
An English take on an American beer maybe?
Pale gold, slight hazy, creamy white head.
Subdued aroma - toasty malt, honey, light floral orchard fruits.
Sort of thin body, drops a way quickly on finish.
Slight grassiness to accompany toasty malts again on the palate, moderate-to-low bitterness.
Tastes a bit tired, despite having a few good months of date on it.
Can at friend’s house. Cloudy and pale golden with no head. Dry, hoppy and carbonated. Grassy and floral nose. Easy drinking
Cask at Piccadilly Tap. Pours a clear yellow gold with a white head that dissipates slowly to the edges and laces slightly. Aroma is full of straw and earthy grains with bread underlying. Flavor has lots of straw and bread with a hint of grass supporting.
Can at home. A very pale, pale ale, if you are allowed to say such a thing. A light colour and a typical flavour of bitter hops and some balancing malt. It was all very pleasant and pale aley and that is about all I can say. Look, it’s a pale ale and there isn't really much you can do with these things apart from drink them and wonder why you paid so much for it!

Puszka 330ml @ Marigold Café, Knaresborough, w piękny kwietniowy dzień ...Złoty kolor. Piana biala,obfita o drobnych pecherzach,ladnie utrzymuje sie w szkle. W aromacie cytrusy,ziarno,brzoskwinie lekka trawa. W smaku ziarniste,o srednim ciele, owoce,cytrusy w tle. Ok
una ipa fresca, dissetante, poco alcoolica ma ricca di gusto.
Pours pale yellow with medium to high carbonation and a fluffy white head.
Aroma is biscuit, pine, apple and citrus. Taste is quite sweet with a light bitter and watery finish.
Refreshing, light and pretty dull. Somewhere in here a decent beer is trying to fet out if only they upped the ABV and hops...

Cask. Yellowy Gold. Light floral citrus fruity. Hints of grapefruit & lemon. Good malt/hop balance. Tasty, crisp, refreshing. Slightly sweet. Fine. (2008)
Hazy golden color with a fine white layer on top. Ok intensity in the aroma. Medium body and an average carbonation level. Ok balance between sweetness and bitterness. Fruity, citric, and caramel malty flavor. Decent Nice golden ale.

Can. Yellow with a medium head. Slightly sour although I am not sure if this was intended.Expected more hops.Nothing wrong with but it was not as impressive as some of their other beers.
33cl can from ales by mail. Light hazy gold color. Thin white head. Medium bitterness, light sweetness. Medium carbonation and body. Aroma is light malt, grass, hops, herbs, spices.
Can from Fyne Wines, Argyll. Straw-gold in colour, almost no fizz, thin bright-white head; Bright aromas of lemon-meringue and passionfruit with malty notes of oat biscuits; Low flavour intensity on palate, light-medium body, low acidity though with buoyant bubbliness; Rich tea biscuits lead palate with undertones of yellow grapefruit and white florals, mellow bitterness arrives on the finish. Disappointing that the bright aromas fail to develop on the palate.
Can. Pours pale golden, clear. Dappled cream-colored head. Aroma is faintly citrus and rose. Not-particularly-sweet fruit giving way to a prickly, biscuity finish.
Gul öl med lättare vitt skum. Citrus, hö och viss gräsighet i både doft och smak. Helt okej men ganska enkel.
From the cask at Reading Beer Festival. Very hoppy citrus aroma. Tasted a bit medicinal, certainly unique but I just found it weird. Hints of burnt plastic.
100416. Can at home (abm). Pours clear golden with a high head. Aroma hops, citrus, strawberry. Slight sweet light palate. A bit more body at it would probably be better. Not Bad.
