FrankJohansen (2807), Sabro, Denmark Sep 18, 2008 Cask at EBF 2008. Amber colour with a small white head. Aroma and taste of citrus and malts. Some hops in the finish. maeib (4012), Wootton, Northampton, Northamptonshire, England Mar 12, 2008 Cask conditioned - handpump - Spencer Arms, Chapel Brampton. A copper coloured beer with no condition. The aroma is fruit skins showing signs of tiredness. The taste is slightly better. There are hints of some citicity from the hops but it’s well below average. larsga (2326), Oslo, Norway Dec 18, 2007 Thin white head. Amber body. Faint malty resiny aroma. Dry straw and resin taste with hoppy floral notes. Chalky, sharpish mouthfeel. A bit watery. No real aftertaste. A bit one-dimensional. Still very drinkable. (0.5pt cask at Windsor Castle (the pub, that is.)) Rastacouere (5409), Montréal, Quebec, Canada Oct 3, 2007 Clearish caramel coloured ale. Off-white ring persists atop of it. Toasted malts and fruits (banana, pineapple type) flavours strike the palate with a constant balance. Easy-drinking, tasty malts, small floral hops. Everything contributes and never too much. Well assembled. Rob_Bestwick (555), Sheffield, South Yorkshire, England Sep 26, 2007 Hoppy and citrusy aroma, deep copper appearance with small white head, lots of carbonation, highly hopped, citrus and spicey flavours, very similar to an IPA. Dry bitter finish.
