Very light aroma, touch dusty. Some bitter hop. Took an age to settle. Taste is.. wow, surprising. Malt and sweet hop. Almost like a Yorkshire mild. Sweet, slight bitter finish. Something I can’t put my finger on in the taste still, really interesting fruit. Strawberries. johninmelb (695), Bristol, Gloucestershire, England

Clear pale golden. Light, sweet citric aroma. Watery, sourish with vague fruit notes. The bitterness is hard to track behind the oxidation. omhper (12283), Stockholm, Sweden

Mildly fruity, milky malts and a bitter finish. Reasonably balanced for a blonde/golden ale from Britain. chriso (4851), London, Greater London, England
| 3.4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 14/20 | Dec 3, 2005 Cask (gravity dispense) at GBBF, August 2005. Another decent golden ale, but rather overshadowed by the Pictish Alchemists sampled at the same time. There’s not as much depth of flavour and aroma as the Pictish and its a touch more malty. Otherwise, clean, fresh and thirst quenching.
