Fin (1979), Merton, Oxfordshire, England May 15, 2008 Bottle picked up from Westholme, Londis, Goring-on-Thames, Oxon, had this 11-05-08 This has a nice bite to it, good fruitiness, some soft slightly sour apricot. Poured hazy amber in colour with a tiny white head and film of thin white bubbles, quite refreshing on a summers day.
berkshire_john (958), Bracknell, Berkshire, England May 26, 2008 Bottle conditioned, 50cl, from Westholme Stores, Goring-on-Thames, Oxon. Amber with a thick white head; fruity apricot aroma; slightly sour grapefruit flavour to start, rather like a kriek, then an explosion of intense chewy bitterness leaving a dry finish. Excellent. RichardGretton (2540), Leicestershire, Leicestershire, England Dec 7, 2007 Bottle. Cloudy bronze beer with a reasonably strong head. The aroma is slightly toffee, the flavour is very, very dry and bitter with a floral and sweet finish. Overall quite a strange beer. fonefan (3916), Ulfborg, Denmark Dec 1, 2007 Bottle. Clear medium yellow orange color with a large, frothy, good lacing, mostly lasting, off-white to white head. Aroma is moderate malty, moderate to heavy hoppy, pine, orange, light smoke. Flavor is moderate sweet and moderate to light heavy bitter with a average duration. Body is light to medium, texture is watery, carbonation is soft.
