SaintMatty (480), Tallinn, Estonia Sep 2, 2008 Cask (Gatekeeper JDW, Cardiff) - Golden/amber with a slight haze. Peach aroma with a hoppy grapefruit element. Citrus hoppy taste with a faint aniseed hint. Not bad. bman1986 (79), Broadstairs, Kent, England Aug 1, 2008 Cask at Artillery Arms, Ramsgate: Bland malty beer. Aroma is a little malt and caramel, flavour much the same. Really doesn’t pull it off though. Wouldn’t drink this again. Mes_and_Sim (4360), Highgate, Greater London, England Jul 23, 2008 A Mes rate: Cask at Baker Street ’Sporks. Clean gold with a sparkler head and lace. Bland pale bready malt with some very slight hops. Notes of tea and hazelnuts. Faint bitterness in the finish with some more bread. As dull as John Major. Magic_dave6 (3752), London, Greater London, England Jul 22, 2008 Cask in the new crown. Aroma has ethanol, pale buttery malts, Not much hop character. Taste is similer the grassy hop character is minimal and the sweet pale malts dominate. SilkTork (3881), Rochester, Kent, England Jan 27, 2008 Somerset Arms, Gravesend. As Gold Reserve. Nice caramel and apple beer, quite sweet. Pleasant juicy hops - quite soft, but emerging in the finish. A nice beer.
