| 3.9 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 16/20 | Aug 7, 2006 Cask conditioned at GBBF Sat 5th August 2006. After having to queue for this I was impressed. Poured a golden colour, with a fruity aroma, initially I got a real citric burst on first taste. This beer had a nice bitterness and tasted really fresh and hoppy. Really enjoyed this but compared with Loz’s (my partner) Pictish Alchemist, I would still go for the latter. GarethYoung (1110), Glasgow, Scotland

| 3.5 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 15/20 | Apr 25, 2006 (Cask at Wenlock Arms, London 20 Apr 2006) Golden yellow colour, with little head. Fruity nose with lots of hop character, sweetish aroma of citrus, mainly grapefruit and lemon (actually rather reminiscent of those yellow odour refreshers you find in toilets). Very fruity taste with loads of lemon, lime and mango (slightly artificial) and an long bitter finish. Rather one dimensional but very nice hoppy character.
