[Cask at the Jolly Angler, Reading] A strong kick of citrus, but over-the-top bitterness soon obliterates everything in its path. Very dry, too. One for the IPA crowd, or the extreme IBU-loving Americans, but not for me I’m afraid - one of the very few times in my life I’ve actually been unable to finish my pint. Wish I’d asked the barman for a sample before I committed myself to this!

Feb 9, 2008 Cask at GBBF 2007. A golden beer with a white head. The aroma is sweet malty with light notes of fruit and esters. The flavor is sweet malty with notes of fruit, leading to a dry bitter finish. The body is thin,.

Oct 3, 2007 Clear light golden ale covered by a white 1cm cover. Grassy and hay-like soft hops dominate the nose since the strawy malts stay rather shy from the beginning until the finish. A mild graininess does not entice the drinker neither. Soft light body. A pretty plain example.
