Hazy deep blond color; small head. It has a nice cereals aroma and flavor, a quite good malt flavor too, and reasonable body; and of course strong bitterness, with quite a lot of hop oils. Not exciting, but a solid brew.

A Mes rate. Draught at the Rake.
An attractive orange gold colour with a thin white head and plenty of lace. Good fruity hops with a pleasant biscuit malt base. Nice and dry. Good bitterness with a faint resinous sting in the finish. Very straight forward but very pleasant overall.

22oz bottle-pours an off white head and gold color. Aroma is mild west coast I.P. lager (Amarillo and Simcoe), secondary medium malt-caramel. Taste is balanced hops and malt with initial spice/lemon/resin, then a solid light/medium malt backbone follows. Thanks jwc215 for sharing this.

Bottle from utobeer in Blackfriars. Alround rating: Good pale lager malts, biscuity yet richer than usual, piney citrus lightly herbal hop over balance it to the bitter side. Excellent stuff!

Bottle... Clear golden ale with a big, creamy, white head. Excellent retention. Spicy and peppery, metallic nose. Medium-bodied with fizzy carbonation. Medium to heavy metallic bitterness. Lengthy, bitter, nickel/steel finish. Appropriately named!

Pours a transparent deep golden bronze with a thin, spotty-lacing white head. Aroma of lightly sweet pale malts and a nice, fresh assertive Saaz hop character. Starts with a nice light sweetness and good noble bittering and flavor hop balance before a crisp, smooth finish. A nicely-flavored, quite drinkable high-gravity lager.
