| 3.1 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 2/5 | 6/10 | 4/5 | 13/20 | Nov 12, 2009 50cl bottle from Westholme Stores, Goring. Pale amber with a fast fading white head; heavy carbonation and lots of fluffy yeast that wouldn’t fully settle before pouring. Honey aroma; citrus flavours, with a long strong dry and bitter hoppy finish with traces of pine resin. Very tasty. maeib (4766), Wootton, Northampton, Northamptonshire, England
| 3.1 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 13/20 | Oct 22, 2008 Cask conditioned - gravity dispense - Oxford BF. Glen obviously got the good half! Golden with whitish bubbles for a head. The aroma was on the sweet side with signs of honey. Same in the mouth with some nettles. Decent enough but I didn’t get the hoppiness Glen had at all. imdownthepub (5173), Banbury, Oxfordshire, England

Yellow gold with white head. Oooh I liked this one, bright and very hoppy, full of lemon citric notes, tangy and tasty with refreshing bitterness. Good stuff. hughie (3076), Bedford, Bedfordshire, England
