A railway themed name after the name for two engines pulling a train. A golden brew made only with pale ale malt and goldings hops giving it a well balanced hoppy flavour. Very drinkable - beware!!

Bottle from Asda. Bottle conditioned. Sparkling yellow/gold with persistent white head. Aroma of fruity (lemon/grapefruit) hop. Good long hoppy finish. Tasty. I’ve had a soft spot for RCH since a friend used to go to the Royal Clarence Hotel on hols (15 years ago?) and bring back a cask for our sports club. God knows where he put the luggage!

Pale Amber, bottle conditioned ale. Smooth, hoppy ale as you would expct from a bottle conditioned beer. Dominant taste is the citrus, grapefruit in the smooth mouthfeel. Quite a good, unagressive beer.

Bottle conditioned. Extremely pale, cloudy, with living and exploding foam. Fresh aroma of hops with some citric presence underneath. Prominent yeasty palate with sweet, almost chocolaty, maltiness. Haystack aftertaste.

Bottle. Cloudy/murky amber colour with a creamy white head. Aroma is sweet malts and hops. Fruity, malty, hoppy, caramel, nutty and sweet flavours. Quite carbonated but with a nice mouthfeel. Pretty good really.

I didn’t think this was very typical golden ale. The colour was a little dark - more orange/copper than gold - and the aroma was more malty than I expected. Fruity flavour, again with plenty of malt and slight nutty hints. Although there’s some hop presence, its not very bitter. Clean, but quite chewy, mouthfeel. Some initial sweetness, but becomes dry on the finish. There’s quite a lot going on here and it all comes together rather well. The relatively high alcohol level is well hidden. Nice. Cask (gravity) at Twickenham Beer Festival.
