2.8 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 11/20 tombyars (1494) - Saltcoats, SCOTLAND - MAR 11, 2012
First tasted this in the Esquire House, Glasgow (JDW) in July 2007. Cask, handpump dispense. Crystal clear amber in colour with a thin white head. Slight note of hop flowers in the short aroma. Thin resiny mouthfeel and good lacing. Pale malts give a mild biscuity flavour in the mouth with tart gooseberry fruit. Weak hop resins impart a tinny metallic aftertaste which fades fast. Finish is watery with grapefruit pith evident in the mouth. An ok session bitter but not outstanding.

Cask. An amber beer with an orangey head. The aroma has notes of malt, fruit, and perfumy hops. The flavor is sweet and very hoppy lending it perfumy and citrusy notes combined with a medium malty note, leading to a dry citrusy finish. The body is light.

Bottle from Tesco. Orange/copper colour with large white head that dissipates to a thin film. Earthy aroma with a touch of sweetness. Theres something terribly wrong with the flavour, though. Horrible earthy taste and a nasty tang in the finish. Not one Ill be trying again

Bottle. Golden amber brown (texture like sun...) with pip squeak off white head. A littel watery, grapefruit and citrus, and a little smoke in the bitter finish perhaps? I was drunk and smoking at the time though. A little different and I’m glad I tried it.
