Jul 13, 2008 Cask-conditioned at The Rising Sun, Frampton Cotterell, S Gloucs 12/7/08. Golden coloured with a slight white head. Sulphurous yeasty aroma, as mentioned by others, with a touch of fruity hops. Slightly sweet malt flavours accompanied by some flinty yet fruity hops and a long, dry finish. Unusual in a positive way.

Jul 11, 2006 Cask at Merton Beer Festival July 7th, 8th 2006. Poured a hazy golden colour with a sulphury nose. I found this beer quite difficult to place It was a little rough around the edges and yet it was very likeable, if you broke it down into parts it actually was a bit messy, appearance not great, I didn’t like the sulphury nose much and yet as a whole it really came through rather well. The hoppiness which I also liked but struggled to compare may have been due to the Mount Hood hops I don’t know that these crop up that often but I think they certainly added a certain something. It had a nice level of bitterness. I would quite like to try some more of their beers pretty good for a new brewery.

Jul 10, 2006 Cask conditioned at Merton Summer Beer Festival 06. Hazed Gold with no head. Big farmy, sulpherous nose leads to a juicy fruity body. Dry hoppiness with a chalky palate to it, bitter and dry in a long finish. A beer of highs and lows, quite interesting.
