Draught. Looks great in the glass, better than I had expected in fact. Big creamy fluffy head which very slowly sinks. The colour is pale golden, straw - I never really feel the need to say it, but in this case it looks literally yellow! Aroma is lots of citrus, specifically lemon with some honied notes reminding me of a hot toddy without the whisky. Flavour is lovely and easy going. Some definite but restrained hops with more citrus fruit, followed by soft malt and barley in the back ground giving it a relatively decent body for the style, it’s quite mid-bodied, and this seems pretty good going for 4% Palate is soft and lush finish is slightly bitter with a good lemon tang and remaining malt sweetness, all in all a well balanced beer that drinks very easily, and for a blonde it’s not afraid of actually having a bit of flavour, but then that’s what you get with Brewdog, beer with flavour!

33cl bottle from the brewery. Batch 466. Best before 2010-12-15. It poured a pale orange colour with a medium big white foamy head that settled down slowly in the glass. Some carbonation. Aroma is a bit hoppy, some tropical fruits. Not too shabby. The flavour is bitter and hoppy as well. A reccurring theme with BrewDog. Notes of grapefruit, citrus and grass. Lingering aftertaste.

Infected. Probably shouldn’t rate, but if brewdog are gonna release beers in this condition then I think it only fair. Thanks to Nate I was able to identify diacetyl and it was terrible. Three of us couldn’t finish one bottle. Another clunker from this brewery.

Darkish straw in colour with small head. Fresh hop aroma of tropical fruits with some light clean malt aroma too. Medium bodied with good malt/hop balance, medium bitterness, finishes slightly salty. An easyd rinking style pale ale more like a lager in texture and body, but enjoyable all the same.

Butterscotch aroma, light amber pour with white head. Aroma could be a result of a long ship to Oz but that is the aroma. Flavour is a mix of tropical fruit that finishes with an assertive bitter finish. Does a remarkable job with only 4.1% abv

[330ml bottle, gift from my wife - thankyou!] Pours orangey-gold with a thin white head. Slight fizz. Fresh hop and tropical fruit aroma with some maltiness behind. Big hit of grapefruit bitterness on first taste, before tropical fruit and candied lemon peel flavours start to come through. Bitterness dominates, with pine emerging in the aftertaste. Good stuff, but like Punk it’s just a nadge too bitter for me.

Bottle @ HJ Hansen, Odense. Pours clear golden with a small creamy off white bubbly head and lacings. Nose is floral hops and a bit of buiscuit. Flavor has tropical fruity hops with some malty buiscuit. Very bitter, dry and crisp. Smooth and very drinakble.

33cl from Ølbutikken, Copenhagen. Clear and filtered pale yellow pour with a thin sporadious white head. Rather fruity aroma with some hops malt. I smell somthink like apricots, citric fruits and walnuts. The taste is light with a watery palate. There is way more taste in Brewdogs Nanny Staty that holds 1,1 % alcohol than in this - a bit disappointing. There is a cleay light bitter and hoppy profile with metallic undertones. Bitter and watery in the finish. The best thing to be said is that it is easely drinakable..and thats not a bad thing.
