Dark golden with a moderate, but lasting head. The aroma is sweet and malty with notes of fruit/citrus. The flavour is sweetish with notes of fruit, coriander, caramel citrus and a spicy finish. 1730

Note - quality is variable, I’ve had a both good and bad bottles. (As per Tranquility’s review below.)
Rich gold colour, thin head. Slightly sickly sweet hoppy aroma. A bit fizzy in the palate, but not harshly so. Slightly plasticy aromatic malt, and a good attempt at an English bitter’s hoppiness. Reasonable grainy body. Emasculated a bit by pasteurisation/filtering, this could hypothetically be pretty good draught, I’m sure.

Nov 5, 2007 Dark golden in colour with a fruity aroma. A slight metallic taste with not much aftertaste. Very little hop aroma, rather thin. Full marks to them for attempting this but I found it a real disappointment.

Jul 11, 2007 Bottle. Yet another gift from Maria’s cellar. Thanks! Clear, golden with an off-white head leaving nice lacings. Caramel, malt and some hops in the aroma, but it is too anonymous. The flavor is a bit thin too, with malt, some grain, fruits and bitterness. Medium body, and a little too short finish with fruits and bitterness. A mediocre, quaffable beer. (070527)
