Commercial Description:
Bottle; Pasteurised.
This exceptional ale is brewed to the exacting standards required by the Soil Association Certification Ltd. of the United Kingdom. The malt is prepared from Organically grown Scottish barley. The hops are grown in New Zealand where the absence of pests means high quality hops can be grown organically. The pure water comes from the rolling Scottish Border hills. The end result is a light golden coloured beer full of flavour and aroma. A refreshing clean tasting beer with an excellent hop aroma and aftertaste.

50cl bottle as Marks & Spencer Oranic Ale. Slightly hazy amber with a thick off-white head; aroma has grass and citrus; fruity malt flavour, rather sweet; grapefruit zest and tartness to the finish which is sustained.

Orange gold with a white head. Faint aroma, mainly malt, I thought. Sweet, malty taste with a sharp bitter finish. Very fizzy. I found this a bit dull and uninspring.

50 cL bottle. Pours cloudy yellow to orange with a white head. Light citrus fruity aroma. Flavour is sweet malty with a light citrus fruity note, minor though. Light malty and fruity finish. Easy to drink brew, nothing complex nothing wrong.

Botella. Comprada en supermercado. Poca personalidad. No destaca por nada en particular, pero en conjunto no es mala. Regular.

Bottle 0.5 l. Beige golden, smallish head. Cidery nose with a some musty hoppiness. Nicely earthy and fruity, slightly buttery, hoppiness on a sweet malt base. Gets much better as it warms up a bit and opens up the hoppiness. Not very bitter and has smooth carb.
