Aug 16, 2006 Bottle conditioned. Old gold coloured with a slim white head. Strong spicey and orangey aroma. Big citrus taste, sweet, hoppy and then dry and sour. Don’t like it.

Apr 23, 2006 Bottle. Golden with an off-white foam. Aromas are spices oranges with citrus sourness. Not much else. Flavours are oranges and sharp lemon. Traces of sweet hops. Dry and sour towards the finish. Yet another tainted Hampshire bottled beer. If they can’t be consistent, they shouldn’t bother.

Jan 18, 2006 Updated: Sep 29, 2007Sep 07 Gravity Cask @ Royal Oak Beer Festival. Scratchy malt with full toffee. Not quite enough hops. 2.4
Sep 06 Cask conditioned @ Cuckoo Inn, Hamptworth. Tasty hops with fruity spice component. Easy going body and mild finish. Quite nice, but could be slightly more assertive. 3.3
Jan 06 BCA (from Bottles of Botley, BBE Sep 06). Despite having had several bad bottles I thought I’d give them another go. Unfortunately the initial aroma smelled like an acidic infection. The first taste was acidicly infected. THe beer itself was still moderately sweet with some citrussy hops but not enjoyable. 1.1

Sep 15, 2005 Cask@The Market Porter, Borough, London. Kind of tasted like a bitter to me. Some toffee-ish malt flavours, grainy. With some lightly flowery citric hops, tastes of ingredients, and not much else, not bad.
