FatPhil (3440), Espoo, Finland Apr 13, 2008 Cask (HBF2008)
Fruity - peach and banana - esters. Creamy in the mouth, pale malts, some grain and a little lactic. Low on hops, and fruity esters poke out instead. Doesn’t seem to know what it is. Doppelganger (1353), Dry County, Arkansas, USA Mar 12, 2008 Cask, Far From The Madding Crowd, Oxford. Copper, a bit of white head. Vague caramel aroma, a little flower pollen, blackberry. Soft wandering malt sweetness with a little toast. A touch of bitterness. Nothing offensive, but not much to praise. chriso (4665), London, Greater London, England Dec 16, 2006 Cask (gravity dispense) at London Drinker Beer Festival, March 2006. Very bright golden yellow colour. Generous amount of aromatic hop in the aroma, with citric and resinous notes. Less on the palate. Fairly restrained bitterness. Light, easy-drinking mouthfeel. Decent but not spectacular.

Joeh (1908), Buckinghamshire, England Apr 16, 2006 London Drinker Festival 2006. Dusty hop aroma. Quite concenrated sweet, bready juicy hoppy flavour. Slightly acidic edge to it.
