| 3.5 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 8/10 | 3/5 | 13/20 | Nov 10, 2007 Orange amber in colour, clear. Thin lacing head. Smells very rooty and bitter with a tinge of citrus skin. Tastes hoppy and sweet, citrus, leafy/grassy with a slightly bitter aftertaste. Very clean and refreshing, surprisingly so, based on the smell. Boutip (2396), Gatineau, Quebec, Canada
| 2.8 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 2/5 | 6/10 | 2/5 | 12/20 | Nov 8, 2007 Bottle: Poured a blonde color ale with a small foamy head with limited retention. Aroma of subtle floral malt. Taste is a mix between some floral malt with some sweet notes. Body is average with some average carbonation. I was expecting something more complex or bitter based on the name of beer but I really thought this was bland. OKBeer (1159), Halifax, Nova Scotia, Canada
| 3.9 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 3/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 16/20 | Nov 7, 2007 500 ml bottle best before Jan 09. Pale golden bronze colour with a fully lasting fizzy and frothy off-white head. Nice citrusy, spicy, grassy, floral, pithy, and pungent aroma. Lightly bready malts with a lemony, spicy, pungent, fruity, and pithy bitter finish. Medium bodied, juicy and refreshing mouthfeel. Beautiful sessionable golden ale - though as I was warned, the bottle just makes me yearn for the cask version. Eructoblaster (1508), Gatineau, Quebec, Canada
| 3.5 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 14/20 | Nov 5, 2007 Bottle - 500ml. Pours a light amber body with average carbonation and a thin white creamy head. Fresh hoppy aroma with grassy and flowery hints. Its sharp hoppy (mainly Golding) taste ends with a long bitter finish. Very enjoyable Ale! Beer Snob (382), Ontario, Canada
| 3.7 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 16/20 | Nov 5, 2007 Golden with a nice fluffy head. Some malt and some citrus in the aroma, and a nice light taste that is dominated, but not bludgeoned by, a good hoppiness.
A nice bitterness lingers on the tongue.
I am off to buy a case. Quevillon (1537), Sainte-Thérèse, Quebec, Canada
| 3.2 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 14/20 | Nov 1, 2007 Bouteille de 500 ml, acheté au LCBO d’Ottawa (Rideau et King Edward). Blonde miel, petit collet. Légé arome d’houblon floral sucré, très peu malté. Goût d’houblon légé, un peu amère, petite sensation de pêche. Rafréchissanté et un peu goûteuse, c’est correct!

| 3.7 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 14/20 | Oct 31, 2007 It IS like a bit of lemon got in this thing. Beautiful reddish-golden amber coat with fine head. I like the hops which are above-par interesting. Radek Kliber (3986), Toronto (Can) Krotoszyn (Pol), Ontario, Canada
| 3.4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 14/20 | Oct 29, 2007 Bottle 500ml
Appearance :Medium cloudy amber with hint of sun , minimal creamy fizz with rocky patch.3- Nose :
Soft fruity aroma of lime with mango, sweet rich malts below. Flavour/Palate : Light bodied but not overly thin , citrus green hops are dominant with out rough harshness. Sweet base helps this ale . Brew with mellow character yet with bite which is uncommon trait at Great Britain. I would like to try casked version of this ale that might suit bit better than glass vessel.
