Commercial Description:
Bottle; Pasteurised.
Goldings Summer Hop Ale is a light-flavoured bitter made with Kentish malt and fresh Goldings hops. Harvested from hop gardens within five miles of the Shepherd Neame brewery in Faversham, the beer is almost floral-scented, with a unique biscuity taste.

Light copper with fast disappearing head. Very light, slightly malty, thin in the mouth, flowery hop and caramel aroma. Saved from being utterly insipid by the light but pleasant hoppiness, decent alternative to lawnmower lager but nothing to seek out.

Bottled. Copperish amber colour with medium white head. Skunkyness along with hops , berries and fruits in aroma. Flavour is plesantly berryish and hoppy. Almost like it would be very bitter, but balanced up with sugar. Still I liked it very much. hoppy and slightly earthy finish.

Clear amber color, small white head. Woody-toffeish hoppy, slightly fruity aroma. Quite typical Shepherd Neame’s pasteurised bitter: Kentish oaky hops, a bit sweet in the beginning then dry woody finish. Also fruity and ashy flavors. Almost like Master Brew or Bishops Finger but more watery. Fizzy mouthfeel in the aftertaste.

(Bottle) Pours copperish amber. Fruity, light orange and apricot like aroma with hoppy notes of flowers. Malty notes of toffee and biscuits. Biscuits and toffee like malt in the flavour with a citric hop background. A bit salty with a touch of minerals. Light bitter. Light body.
