reakt (855), Greater London, England Jan 27, 2008 Shared one of these with Mes a couple weeks ago and it was the first Brit beer I could honestly say was 2 young at the time. Second bottle is much different, still young, green so to say, but quite fitting, lol...It’s like coming as close as you can 2 a gator and living 2 tell the tale...I mean, I’ve been out swimming in Galveston bay and felt something brush against my leg and think it’s nothing 2 look up and see a small sharks fin in the next wave but that’s just it, it’s just a young, plain drinkable beer, with floral hops, gooseberry and green apple notes...A beer that ticks all the boxes and I’d drink all the time without any thought...Ascot is one to watch...Could nip your ankle and you wouldn’t realise till later..It’s the kind of beer you’d drink on a daily basis and wonder why you end up passed out on the last train home...more of this please, mmm...
PJClarke (50), London, Surrey, England Nov 20, 2008 A really light golden ale with a fantastic looking head. Hoppy, and with the tang of gooseberries in the aroma. The balance in this ale is fantastic; hoppy, sweet, sour, bitter all follow one another in the mouth. A little yeasty which is very nice and well judged. Very smooth with a slight oily slickness. Absolutely delicious. digiguru (2), , Surrey, England does not count Oct 29, 2008 Great light ale that makes any simpler beer redundant. Beautiful aromas that make this a great choice if you can find it. MrAleman (113), guildford, Surrey, England Aug 31, 2008 Updated: Sep 6, 2008The Amercain version of real ale, interesting! I like this beer however, very nice flavour during the entire bottle, it does contain a lot of yeast and that is evident during tasing it. Nice ale this one and recommended. bman1986 (90), Broadstairs, Kent, England Aug 31, 2008 Cask at Hop Farm Beer Festival: This was good. Very refreshing, citrussy with a lot of fruit. Almost a little cloying but not quite. Very nice beer. Svesse (1877), Hässelby, Sweden Aug 23, 2008 (Cask at GBBF, London, 6 Aug 2008) Golden yellow colour, slightly hazy, with brief white head. Fruity, malty nose with floral, citrussy hops. Fruity taste with notes of pineapple, citrus and fresh floral hops in the finish. Some sweetness lingers throughout. Refreshing beer.
