Bottled 0,50L. Golden bright yellow color, poor bubbly aspect and short head resistance. Soft malty and grains flavour, delicate herbaceus and cereals aroma. Medium prickly mouth, inconsistant alcoholic palate with medium prickly bitter final.
Birra liscia e con poco gusto. Poco amaro leggero retrogusto di limone. Schiuma quasi assente.

Cask - Chelsea Potter, Chelsea. A clear Amber with a lasting, lacing one-finger White to odd-White head. Mis-fruit aromas, a little appley, bready and yeasty. Light to medium body, soft carbonation, slightly oily with a soft length and intensity finish.
Cask at the Knights Templar. Barely there white head. Gold body with a light haze. Dough, some lemon, some fruit. Tangy. Dry, oily finish. Crap.
Pint at the William Morris Hammersmith. Citrus aroma, bright gold with a white head. Lemon/lime and nutty biscuit flavour, but an astringent green bitterness kind of interferes with the quaffibility. I fear there may be one hop variety too many here.
Pours hazy golden with low white head. Aroma of malt, caramel, light citrus. Taste is mild bitter, somewhat citrusy, with malty finish. Light, smooth body with soft carbonation.
Cask at the Grey Horse, Kingston. Herbaceous hops, hints of pine, plenty of citrus, sweet malty finish. Nicely balanced session ale.
the aroma is malty and fruity with some shades of citrus, herbs and apple... the taste is malty with notes of orange, apple, flowers and herbs... the aftertaste is sweet, bitter and dry...
