Clear medium yellow color with a average, frothy, good lacing, mostly lasting, white head. Aroma is moderate malty, toasted, sewage, light hoppy, citrus. Flavor is moderate sweet and acrid bitter with a average duration. Body is light to medium, texture is watery to oily, carbonation is soft to flat. [20090805]

Oct 20, 2009 Cask (handpump) at the Victoria, Lincoln, April 2008. Rather similar to the Spire Whiter Shade of Pale that I tried just before. Not, perhaps, surprising as both have a proportion of wheat in the mash. More surprising that they both exhibited a strong lemon character when this one uses cascade and the Spire specifically excluded grapefruit hops. The end results were similar - clean, sharp and hoppy but a little short of complexity.

Sep 4, 2009 (Cask at GBBF, London Earl’s Court, 5 Aug 2009) Golden yellow colour with frothy, off-white head. Fruity, hoppy nose with notes of citrus, grass and pineapple. Fruity taste with grass, citrus, tropical fruit and a decent, citrussy bitternes in the finish. Rather light body with some sweetenss. Fresh citrussy hop character. Nice and refreshing.

Aug 13, 2009 Cask at GBBF on 8th August 2009. Gold with lasting white head. Fruit aroma then boldly hoppy. Delicate fruit notes also seek the limelight in the imbiber’s mouth. Dry crisp finish; pleasant, with a smooth texture.

Aug 11, 2009 Cask@GBBF2009. Golden colour, small white head. Aroma is wood, mild yeastylike notes, fruits and some hints of vanilla. Flavour is sweet floral hops along with earth and mild wood. Quite boring bitter.

Aug 10, 2009 Cask@GBBF 2009.
Pale yellow color, small white head, some lace. Sticky "toilet hoppy" aroma, some green apples. Harsh, lime-vegetably hoppy flavor. This tastes a bit like some Czech pilsners. Not very likeable.
