Very bready with a slight hint of diacetyl giving it a wholemeal and butter character. Decent hops but they are just not supported well. Harviestoun can do a LOT better. bobinlondon (838), Harrow, Greater London, England

| 3.4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 14/20 | May 9, 2009 Cask handpull at Hinckley Spoons. Red gold with a flat white lid and speckled with lace. Good wring of lychee and nettley hop in the nose with added caramel. Totally flat with a pleasant mellow rub of soapy citrus hop; lychee and stewed tea wth a punchy bitterness softening into slate, oats and lingering malted milk biscuit. Robustly hopped and balanced but not their best. harrisoni (6794), Ashford, Kent, England

Nettle hop blond beer. Quite harsh on finish. It’s an ok slightly sweaty beer, but very bitter hoppy finish, especially for the ABV, quite spicy. hughie (3055), Bedford, Bedfordshire, England
| 2.8 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 4/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 4/5 | 11/20 | Apr 29, 2009 Cask at ’Spoons, Milton Keynes, in ’Spoons Real Ale Festival. Gold with a large white head. He had to coax this one out; the very dregs of the cask, and not surprisingly a bit warm. He was reluctant to serve it to me. ’Please,’ I begged. ’I’m a ticker.’ Probably some floral hop in the aroma, but the large head didn’t help. Taste is oily grapefruit. A sharp bitter finish. downender (2583), Bristol, Gloucestershire, England
