It pours a slighlty hazy, golden body under an off-white, dense head. Fruity hops, some bread and caramel in the aroma. Flavorwise it has a biscuity, malty backbone, with fruity, slightly resiny hops giving a nice bitterness. Medium to full body, rather dry. Fine, resiny bitterness in the finish. Overall, it’s a bit weak on aroma, quenching, and very British. 090726 gam (1059), brisbane, Australia Aug 23, 2009 Nice head good carb in a misty orange/gold coloured pour.Aroma hoppy fruit,malt toffee,honey,woody note,ginger nut biscuit,flavour toffee,woodyness,honey,gingernut biscuit sweetness,has a fizz,citrus taste there,lemon or grapefruit bitter,finish fizzy,decent malt nice bitter,good. madquacker (706), Canberra ACT, Australia Aug 16, 2009 Seen higher in ABV than 3.8%.
