Sep 24, 2007 Bottle @ Chris_O’s HogTownHarry minifest. Pale gold with a short lived white head. Nose of pear juice, citrus, hop and malt with some wheaty notes. Taste is much the same with a slight creamy mouthfeel. Not the greatest.

Sep 23, 2007 A Mes rate:
Bottle at Chris_O’s HogTownHarry minifest. Pale lager looks with a slight white head. Metallic, cardboard, slight malt, just a lick of alcohol but otherwise it is well hidden. Next!

Sep 22, 2007 Bottle (750ml). Shared with chris_o, mes_and_sim, harrisoni, reakt and duff - via harrisoni. Pale clear bubbly gold, quick-diminishing white head. Light aroma, I picked up papery diacetyl - it’s still quite sweet, odd weak dry spicy yeast, fairly dead floral hops. The taste served a little better, sweet grainy malt, light yeast/hops but the primary character was mild barnyard funk. Weirdly thick body, syrupy, almost hard to fire down - not bad, not sure what it wants to be.

Sep 22, 2007 Bottle from Auchan, Calais, drunk at Chris_o’s HogTownHarry meet up. Gold beer with thick white head. Bit of pukey lagery malt on aroma. OK in mouth, but pukey too. Pretty bad.

Golden colour. Good head retention. Juniper nose, big on flowers and tidbits. Nice. Tidbits and hop flowers in flavour, there is also vanilla. Medium body. Maltiness is pretty solid.
